Around Lake Louise, guided by chipmunks and surrounded by glaciers, mountain lakes, waterfalls, and some of the most breathtaking scenery I’ve ever seen 🏔️
If you ever visit this place, I’d highly recommend escaping the crowds at the shore of Lake Louise and exploring the hiking trails instead.
The hikes I completed in one day:
Mirror Lake, Lake Agnes Tea House, Plain of Six Glaciers Tea House
Every single one was absolutely worth it, and there are still so many more trails to explore. I’ll definitely be back.
A few important tips:
🐻 Carry bear spray and learn how to use it before you go.
🌤️ Start early so you have enough time to catch the last shuttle bus back. The final bus leaves at 6 p.m. (we somehow managed to get on one at 7 p.m, but that was pure luck! 😄)
🚌 Most likely, you’ll need to take the shuttle from the Lake Louise Park & Ride, as finding a parking spot near the lake is almost impossible.
Happy hiking 🤍
