Johnston Canyon Evening Icewalk® - Moonlight Series

Discover Johnston Canyon by moonlight on select nights around the full moon. Explore frozen waterfalls, hear stories behind seasonal moon names, and take in the moon’s glow when conditions allow, then warm up with a hot drink and a Nanaimo bar.

Let the moon reveal a different side of Johnston Canyon. Our Moonlight Series celebrates the nights around the full moon, when its glow can illuminate the snow and ice and transform the winter landscape. Along the way, your guide will share stories behind seasonal moon names, including the Wolf Moon and Worm Moon, and explore how the moon’s changing phases shape our experience of the night.

As you journey to the lower falls, pause to let your eyes adjust and appreciate the natural light of the moon when conditions allow. Look for its silver glow on the canyon walls, shadows stretching across the snow, and ice catching the light. These moments invite you to slow down and experience the canyon through the changing interplay of moonlight and darkness.

Enjoy a hot drink and a Nanaimo bar as your guide continues the moon stories—a warm finish to an evening centred on our closest celestial neighbour.
