What to expect

Looking to try Canyoning for the first time? Then this is the trip for you! An easy approach, an ideal location to learn rappelling, and amazing scenery all make this trip the perfect choice for your first canyoning experience.

Heart Creek Canyon is the closest trip to the towns of Banff and Canmore. A popular summer day hike destination, few visitors to Heart Creek ever explore the top of lower Heart Canyon. Upper Heart Canyon provides a perfect location to learn and develop your rope rappelling skills comfortably.

The introductory short rappels allow you to ease into rappelling and increase in length as you progress, finally culminating with an exciting 60ft wet waterfall rappel and slide (optional: it is possible to hike around the lower falls).
