Description

Explore four of the most iconic lakes in the Canadian Rockies—Lake Louise, Moraine Lake, Emerald Lake, and Peyto Lake—each offering its own breathtaking charm throughout the seasons. In summer, witness the turquoise brilliance of Moraine Lake, nestled in the Valley of the Ten Peaks, and the world-famous Lake Louise, where glaciers meet mirror-like waters. Continue to Emerald Lake, known for its vivid color and tranquil forest setting, and Peyto Lake, a glacier-fed wonder shaped like a wolf’s head. During winter, when Moraine Lake is closed due to seasonal access, the journey highlights Lake Louise, Emerald Lake, and Peyto Lake, now transformed into a magical frozen landscape surrounded by snow-capped peaks and crisp alpine air. This scenic adventure offers the perfect blend of iconic viewpoints, pristine wilderness, and unforgettable photo opportunities year-round.

Rundle could actually be considered a small mountain range as the mountain extends for over 12 kilometres (7.5 mi), on the south side of the Trans-Canada Highway eastward from Banff to Canmore with seven distinct peaks along the way. The third peak southeast of Banff is the highest at 9,675 feet (2,949 m).
