Lake Louise Trail Information
• A WorldWeb.com Travel Guide to Trail Information in Lake Louise, Alberta.
Saddleback Pass + My Favorites
Saddleback Pass is a steep, but rewarding hike to a high pass that overlooks the peaks around Paradise Valley. It includes avalanche slopes, old-growth forest, talus slope and alpine meadow landscapes.
Plain of Six Glaciers Teahouse & Viewpoint + My Favorites
An open trail that follows the shore of Lake Louise and continues into the back of the valley. It can end at the teahouse or at the viewpoint a short distance beyond.
Emerald Basin + My Favorites
A flat stroll along the shore of Emerald Lake followed by a short, steep climb through forest and ending with a gentle climb through forest to Emerald Basin. The basin is an open cirque surrounded by cliffs, a glacier and small waterfalls. On the return trip, complete the circuit of Emerald Lake if you have time.
Helen Lake + My Favorites
The trail makes a moderate climb up through loose forest that continues to open up. It levels out in a large open meadow, then there is another short climb to a small lake below a headwall. The trail may be made longer by continuing on to Dolomite Pass (a short, steep climb beyond the lake).
The Little Beehive + My Favorites
Beginning with the hike to Lake Agnes, the Little Beehive takes the hiker to an expansive view over the Bow Valley. Part of the trail is shared with horses.
Paradise Valley & the Giant Steps + My Favorites
This trail loops through an entire valley providing great scenery and a variety of landscapes, from an old-growth forest and alpine meadows to rocky talus slope. The Giant Steps waterfall is a nice highlight.
Bow Glacier Falls + My Favorites
This open trail follows the shore of Bow Lake, goes over some ancient moraines, traverses the rocky rubble of newer moraines and leaves the hiker facing the towering Bow Falls that pour off of Bow Glacier and the Wapta Icefield.
The Big Beehive + My Favorites
Beginning with the hike to Lake Agnes (and its teahouse), the Big Beehive features a beautiful larch forest and views over Lake Louise, Lake Agnes and Mirror Lake.
Lake Agnes Teahouse + My Favorites
The well-graded trail and teahouse on its shore make Lake Agnes a very popular hike. Part of the trail is shared with horses.
Sentinel Pass, via Larch Valley + My Favorites
A continuation of the Larch Valley trail, Sentinel Pass provides rugged mountain views over the Valley of the 10 Peaks and Paradise Valley. The Grand Sentinel is a rock spire visible from the pass.
The Two Teahouse Tour + My Favorites
This combination of trails connects the Lake Agnes teahouse and the Plain of Six Glaciers teahouse into a loop. The combination of scenery, food and hiking makes a great mountain day.
Larch Valley + My Favorites
Larch valley provides some great views and alpine meadow terrain at all times of the year. In mid to late September the larch's needles turn brilliant gold, making this hike a special treat.
