Moraine Lake Shuttles & Tours
Adventure Details
Lake Louise and Moraine Lake are among the most visited destinations in Canada. It's not hard to see why! Extensive hiking trails wrap bright blue lakes, offering breathtaking vistas at every turn. What makes Moraine Lake even more special is that it can only be accessed for a short time each year (June to early October)—so make the most of every moment here by planning your day in advance.
Before deciding how to spend the day exploring Moraine Lake, it's essential to work out how you'll get there first. Moraine Lake Road has said goodbye to private vehicle access due to parking spots at the lake being hard to come by. But do not worry, in its place are frequent shuttle buses and tours to the tranquil lake. You can't drive personal vehicles up Moraine Lake Road at any time of day. This means you must hike, bike, take a shuttle or transit, or go on a tour. You can still drive to Lake Louise, although parking is limited and payment is required.You will have plenty of time to leisurely stroll along the serene shore at Moraine Lake, soak in the beauty, and even conquer the famous Rock Pile. So, get ready to embrace the serenity, snap some remarkable photos, and create memories that will make your social media shine. Choose from shuttles (departing from Banff or Lake Louise or guided tours).
