1 Day Tour in Banff Lake Louise and Moraine Lake

Lake Louise

The lake is fed by the Victoria Glacier. In 1882, when Princess Louise, daughter of Queen Victoria, married the Governor General of Canada, he named the lake after her as a gesture of affection. Surrounded on three sides by snow‑capped mountains, the lake receives glacial meltwater in summer. The minerals carried by the glacier give the lake its stunning turquoise‑green color—so beautiful it captivates visitors for hours.

Moraine Lake

Located in the Valley of the Ten Peaks, Moraine Lake is truly a hidden gem. Most visitors climb the rockpile to the top, where the crystal‑blue lake and surrounding mountains create an unforgettable view. The Canadian government even featured this scenery on the back of the 1969 twenty‑dollar bill. Opening season for Moraine Lake: early June to early October.
