Alberta - Canada

Close to the border with British Columbia you will find in Alberta the fabulous Banff National Park.

Many great things to see in this park.

Park: Banff National Park

Lake Louise, the most famous lake in the park, pictures taken June 2008:

Lake Louise might be the most popular lake, but only 14 km (8,7 miles) from Lake Louise, you will find the magical view of Moraine Lake.

Another beautiful lake we have seen by hiking there from Lake Louise is Mirror Lake. The hike is approx 3km one way, 300 mtr elevation gain. It's the hiking trail to Lake Agnes, which is about 1 km further.
