Hiking Walkways to Johnston Canyon Lower Falls

The walkways leading to Lower Falls at Johnston Canyon are a series of well-maintained metal catwalks and wooden bridges that cling to the canyon walls, providing a thrilling perspective above the rushing river. As hikers make their way along the 1.2 km (0.75 mi) trail, the path alternates between forested sections and dramatic cliffside walkways suspended over the turquoise waters below. The sound of the river echoing through the narrow gorge enhances the immersive experience, while occasional viewing platforms offer stunning glimpses of the canyon’s unique rock formations and swirling pools. Near the falls, a sturdy bridge crosses the river, leading to a small tunnel carved through the limestone. This tunnel opens to a close-up viewpoint where visitors can feel the mist from the cascading water and witness the falls up close, framed by steep rock walls. The combination of the elevated walkways, rushing water, and sheer canyon walls makes the journey to Lower Falls an unforgettable experience. Johnston Canyon Home
