Hike to classic locations in the Banff Lake Louise area. Share the passion for the mountains with our local, enthusiastic guides. Explore the trails in Yoho, Larch Valley, Stanley Glacier, and Plain of 6 Glaciers. Hiking time is from 4 to 6 hours. Guests must have sturdy footwear and dress in layers in case of weather changes.

***RECOMMENDED*** We recommend the Stanley Glacier Hike (Tues & Thurs). Not as well known as some trails in Lake Louise/Yoho, but spectacular scenery and less crowded. A gradual climb up through forests rejuvenating after wildfires into an amphitheater surrounded by cliffs and glaciers.
