This self-drive route, also known as the 1A Hwy, begins 6 km west of Banff off of\u00a0 <\/span>the TransCanada HWY 1. \u00a0<\/span>An arched log entrance begins the journey which gently meanders through montane forests affording many scenic pull-offs, picnic sites, and perhaps the best opportunity to spot wildlife in Banff National Park.\u00a0 <\/span>The speed limit is intentionally slow at 60 km to add safety for the wildlife and the cyclists \u2013 please note large animals can appear at any time of day\u00a0<\/span>\/night in the spring and summer months, so drive diligently. \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n The springtime is a time for many of the animals to give birth to young and for the bears, a chance to forage and regain weight lost after the winter hibernation.\u00a0<\/span>Park gates are time sensitive and will close this section at either end of the restricted area. After 8 pm or before 8 am, Johnston Canyon is still accessible by going to Castle Junction and connecting onto the Parkway at that end.<\/span><\/p>\n Please contact Parks Canada \/ Banff National
