Why is Moraine Lake so popular?


Why is Moraine Lake so popular? We like to consider it one of the best views in the world. Moraine Lakes' deep blue is backed by the famed Ten Peaks – ten towering snow-capped peaks. It's a short walk up to the top of the rockpile trail that almost anyone can accomplish. The trail switchbacks along the backside of the rocky moraine.


Which is better Lake Louise or lake Moraine?

Moraine Lake is only half the size of its nearby neighbour Lake Louise, but perhaps even more scenic. It's situated at an elevation of 1883 meters in the beautiful Valley Of The Ten Peaks in Banff National Park. This glacier-fed lake becomes the most intense and vivid shade of turquoise blue.
