The easily accessible viewpoint offers stunning photo opportunities with the backdrop of surrounding forests and mountains. A short walking trail connects the falls to the Banff Springs Hotel, making it a perfect add-on to a leisurely stroll or guided tour. Interpretive signs along the path share insights into the area's natural history and geology.
