    Hiking

    A bright blue lake against a spectacular mountain backdrop.
    In this case: If you are in Banff National Park and you do not want to stop by, it's your own fault!


    In the immediate vicinity of the lake is a larger parking lot and the road ends here. In the peak season and especially on sunny days, it can be scarce with parking.
    There are also some lodges on this side of the lake and canoes can be hired. But not a really big tourist development such as Lake Louise.

    Hiking

    A must if you are nearby!
    The ascent is completed within a few minutes from the parking lot, and the subsequent view of the lake is first class.

    Hiking

    Moraine Lake shows itself even in bad weather always in an enchanting turquoise to emerald green water. In the sunshine the glittering turquoise is sometimes surreal and intense. Moraine Lake is certainly worth a trip, just because the surrounding mountains provide a great panorama and last but not least a world-famous photo motif.
    In addition, the ascent along Moraine Lake takes you to the Sentinel Pass, which is recommended to every experienced and willing mountaineer and hiker! I was thrilled!
