Banff National Park

Canada's most famous National Park

Banff National Park. One of the best trips I have ever been on. Flew into Calgary, and drove around all the lakes and glaciers! I have been back three times since because I love it so much. This place should be on everyone's list! 📍Emerald Lake (BC) 📍Moraine Lake 📍Peyto Lake 📍Peyto Glacier #hiking#nationalpark#naturalwonders#urbanexplorer#roadtrip#leaveyourmark

Peyto Lake is one of the most popular lakes in Banff National Park. The water is a brilliant blue colour like paint, and you can reach an elevated viewpoint with a short 10 minute walk. There are few views that will take your breath away faster! Peyto Lake is currently closed for renovations until summer 2021, but it should be on every Banff bucketlist! #banff #bucketlist #canada #lake #beautiful

The Tower of Babel scramble in Banff National Park is one of the most amazing adventures in the entire park. start at the base of Moraine Lake and climb the steep scree shoot until you pop out into the top. Once you’re at the top you’ll have stunning views of Consolation Lakes on one side and Moraine Lake on the other. Few people ever make it this far!

lake Herbert is a beautiful lake on the Icefields Parkway on the way to Jasper. It’s the first lake you’ll come across as you pass the park gates, and most people just breeze past it! If you stop there early in the morning, you might just get one of the best reflections in the entire national park! The water is shielded from wind and is a little warmer than the glacial fed lakes. There’s even a diving board at the far end of the lake for the brave amongst you! #lake #canada #banff

Waterfowl Lakes are another beautiful group of bright turquoise lakes in Banff National Park. They lie along the Icefields Parkway on the way up to Jasper, and the shores are within just a few feet of the parking area. The view is spectacular, and it’s an amazing place to bring a stand up paddle board and go for a paddle! #banff #canada #lake #reflection #sup

Checking out the view of Peyto Lake, a unique fox/wolf-shaped lake located in Alberta, Canada.

The hike to Peyto Lake is very easy. From the parking lot, it's only a 10 minute trek up. Arrive early to avoid the crowds.
