One of the most popular attractions to the Grande Cache area, Sulphur Gates is an impressive cliff edged confluence of two rivers:
The Smoky and The Sulphur.
Dramatic rock formations adorn this site and define the two rivers in stark contrast.
There is a short trail taking one around all the viewpoint platforms along the cliffs.
Please stay behind the protective guardrails and wear good footwear, as some areas can get slippery.
