Introduction

Marin Canyon is a typical karst landscape located within Jasper National Park. The winding and deep canyon is approximately 2 kilometers long, formed by erosion of the Marin River on limestone. The canyon is characterized by steep and vertical cliffs on both sides, with swift water flow and more than ten waterfalls, making the entire valley roar with the sound of water, thrilling visitors. The waterfalls in the canyon perfectly demonstrate the characteristics of the karst terrain. At the entrance, there is detailed information on the formation of karst landscapes, which is both detailed and comprehensive. Marin Canyon is one of the must-see attractions for tourists visiting Jasper National Park.
