2Moraine Lake
Upon arrival at Moraine Lake, we’ll welcome you with a warm beverage to enjoy in the crisp mountain air. As the morning light reveals the turquoise waters and towering Ten Peaks, you’ll immediately understand why this is one of Canada’s most celebrated destinations. Unlike most tours, you’ll have up to four full hours here, giving you the freedom to truly immerse yourself in its beauty. Your guide will lead you to the Rockpile Viewpoint for that world-famous panorama, then the rest of the time is yours to enjoy as you wish. Hike to Consolation Lakes for a peaceful alpine escape surrounded by rugged peaks, or tackle the Larch Valley Trail, one of Banff National Park’s most iconic hikes. In mid-September to early October, this trail transforms into a golden wonderland as thousands of larch trees turn vibrant yellow—a must-see for fall visitors. Prefer a gentler pace? Stroll the lakeshore trail, rent a canoe, or simply find a quiet spot to take it all in.
