Johnston Canyon Lodge & Bungalows offers an unmatched location in the heart of Banff National Park—directly at the trailhead of one of the most iconic hikes in the Canadian Rockies. Nestled between Banff and Lake Louise, just minutes from the scenic Icefields Parkway, we’re the perfect place to relax, explore, and reconnect with nature.
Our property features 42 heritage bungalows and cabin-style units, each tucked into the forest and designed to offer rustic comfort and quiet retreat. Whether you’re looking for a romantic escape, a family adventure, or a peaceful solo getaway, there’s a cabin to suit your style—from cozy one-bedrooms to larger units with kitchenettes and private patios.
Our location places you right in the action: hiking trails at your doorstep, waterfalls within walking distance, and panoramic viewpoints just a short drive away. It’s one of the few places in the park where you can stay without ever needing to move your car.
We know adventures are better with four-legged friends. That’s why Johnston Canyon Lodge is proudly pet friendly. Designated cabins are available so your pup can enjoy the trails, smells, and mountain air right alongside you. Just let us know when booking and review our pet policy below.
