Moraine Lake

Spend a day hiking above this world-class glacial blue lake. One of the most iconic destinations in Banff National Park- Moraine Lake- becomes even more enchanting in the Autumn, as the Alpine larch changes colour.The alpine larch is unique amongst its conifer cousins, such as pine and spruce trees. Whilst other conifers stay green year-round, the larch begins a stunning transformation come the Fall, as its needles turn autumnal shades of orange and gold.Frame an entire valley of these extraordinary trees against the rugged, glacial capped peaks of the Canadian Rockies and you have the world-renowned Larch Valley of Banff National Park.
