Prepare to be captivated by the striking beauty of this vibrant blue glacier-fed lake, situated approximately 25 miles (40 km) north of Lake Louise within the exquisite Banff National Park. A must-see stopover for travelers journeying along the famed Icefields Parkway, this lake owes its stunning hue to the infusion of glacial rock flour during the summer months.
Beholding this natural wonder is truly a feast for the eyes, but it is not the only one of its kind in Banff National Park. Moraine Lake, Lake Louise, Emerald Lake, Sherbrooke Lake, Bow Lake, and Hector Lake are all magnificent blue lakes that are easily accessible to visitors. Prepare to be spellbound by the enchanting beauty of Banff’s blue lakes.
You can hike up to Bow Summit, the highest point in the Canadian Rockies, and also around the lake marveling at the color.
