Rocky Mountains Canada Lake Louise

Lake Louise is a glacial lake in Banff National Park in Alberta, Canada, in the Rocky Mountains. The lake was named after Princess Louise Caroline of Alberta, the fourth daughter of Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom and the wife of the Marquis of Lorne, the Governor General of Canada, who served as Governor General of Canada from 1878 to 1883. The lake's turquoise color comes from rock flour carried into the lake by meltwater from the glaciers that overlook the lake. The lake has a surface area of ​​0.8 square kilometres and flows into the Bow River via the 3-kilometre-long Louise Creek. There are various hiking trails around the lake, including those to Splendid Mountain at 2,744 meters above sea level, Lake Agnes at 2,134 meters above sea level, Big and Small Beehives, Devil's Thumb, etc. These places are also excellent places to overlook Lake Louise at 1,750 meters above sea level. #OverseasTravel #Canada #CanadaTravel #RockyMountains #BanffNationalPark #Lake #SnowMountain #Hotel #canada #canadatravel #lakelouise
