Bow Falls
Bow Falls, on the Bow River near Banff
The Bow River thunders over Bow Falls just before the junction of the Bow and Spray Rivers. The falls are located near the Banff Springs Hotel and golf course on the left-hand side of River Road. The 1953 Marilyn Monroe film The River of No Return featured the falls. Large number of tourists visit the falls annualy because of the proximity to Banff not the size of the falls, being only a few meters.
