Another beautiful lake to visit beside Lake Louise and Morraine Lake while this is much more closer to Calgary.
Feel the fresh mountain air, watch for wildlife and get adventurous on Banff's largest lake. Choose from an acclaimed boat cruise and explore under the lead of a knowledgeable guide on a heated, covered boat. Or set your own course with a kayak, canoe or motorboat rental. Hiking trails are also in the area along Lake Minnewanka.
