The Moraine Lake sunrise that rewires you.
That moment when the first light hits the Ten Peaks and the turquoise water turns liquid gold. It’s the kind of sunrise that stops your heart, then quietly rewires it. On this Moraine Lake sunrise tour, we get you there while Banff is still asleep, and your guide takes you to the best spot to watch it all unfold. With a hot drink in hand, enjoy the sunrise as the peaks light up one by one. Just a small group and a sunrise most people never get to experience in their lifetime.
After sunrise, we continue to Lake Louise. Stroll the lakeshore, capture postcard-perfect reflections, or slide out onto the water in a canoe. Your guide stays with you throughout, and a picnic breakfast from Bare Bistro café is waiting whenever you’re ready.
For the ones who believe some moments are worth waking up early for.
