- Peyto Lake - Before named Peyto the lake was known as Doghead Lake—exactly what it resembles from any high point near its south end looking north. It was renamed for guide/outfitter, Bill Peyto, who would later become one of Canada’s first Banff National Park warden.
The panoramic lookout is insanely beautiful.
- Bow Lake - Bow Lake sits at an elevation of 1920 meters and spends most of the year locked away in ice. The lake acts as the source of the Bow River that flows through Banff, Canmore, and Calgary.
At this location, we will go for a lovely hike that traverses the shores of Bow Lake, travels through an interesting gorge, and then ascends an outwash plain to the base of stunning Bow Falls tumbling down a rugged cliff.
Don’t forget to bring with your lunch for an amazing picnic at an elevation above 7,000 feet.
Hiking Difficulty Level: easy-moderate
- Herbert Lake - Herbert Lake is a small glacial lake situated on the Icefields Parkway. It’s such a peaceful and calm lake. This is an awesome and far less-traveled trail with great mountain views.
- Emerald Lake - Emerald Lake – The Most Stunning Lake in the Canadian Rockies. The turquoise blue of its water, bordered by pine forests and snowy peaks, is one of the most characteristic images of the Canadian Rockies.
- Natural Bridge - The Natural Bridge at Yoho Natural Park in British Columbia is a wonder that will keep you wondering. It is a naturally-formed stone bridge that connects one side to the other side of the Kicking Horse River. When the ice and glaciers melt in its surrounding area, the sounds of the cascading water can be heard almost like, well, a kicking horse?
