Trails

 Easy trails

  Cave and Basin Trail: Upper Boardwalk

Walk along the Upper Boardwalk above the bathing pavilion to see the cave vent and the location of the former Hotel. View the two smaller springs bubbling from the mountainside and the pools filled with pink bacteria, white and green algae, small fish, and insects.

  Cave and Basin Trail: Lower Boardwalk

Explore the Lower Boardwalk below the building to find out more about the natural history of this area. Look for the fish and bird life that live in the wetlands below.

  Marsh Loop

This trail encircles a wetland filled from hot springs flowing out of the lower slopes of Sulphur Mountain. Due to heavy horse use, the Marsh Loop tends to be muddy after rain.

  Easy/Moderate trails

/   Sundance Trail/ Sundance Canyon

Follow the paved trail beyond the Cave and Basin National Historic Site. Within a few minutes, views open up to a mountain panorama across the Bow River. After a gentle yet steady climb away from the river, the paved section ends and a moderately difficult trail loops through a water-filled canyon.

Pedal assist e-bikes are permitted on the paved section of the Sundance Canyon trail.
