Lake Louise at a Glance
The turquoise waters of Lake Louise, in Alberta's
Rockies, have been photographed so often now, the lake has become something
of a cliche for mountain serenity. And yet, nothing quite prepares the visitor
for the unearthly beauty of this alpine gem. The lake owes its colour to fine
particles suspended in the glacier waters, but few visitors at the world famous
Fairmount
Chateau Lake Louise are thinking of hydrology as they look out over the waters
from the luxury hotel. Downslope from the Chateau, the town of Lake Louise has
its own charm. Small but well-appointed with restaurants, accommodation and stores,
the townsite is an ideal getaway destination in summer when trail riding, hiking,
rafting and mountain biking predominate.Wildlife is also a major draw with elk
commonly sighted from the road and even the occasional bear. In winter, Lake
Louise Ski Hill is the major attraction with its world-class ski runs. Visit
the WorldWeb.com travel guides for Icefields
Parkway, Jasper, BC's
Rockies, and Banff for information
about nearby destinations.
