Lake Louise Hiking & Biking
• A WorldWeb.com Travel Guide to Hiking & Biking in Lake Louise, Alberta.
Canada is a hotbed for heart-thumping, adrenaline-pumping action. Geographically, it is the second largest country in the world and accordingly, it offers one of the most diverse landscapes in the world. Canada is known internationally as a world-class skiing and snowboarding destination due to long northern winters, heavy snowfall and a wild assortment of mountains and peaks that span the nation. But the country also offers many other activities that cater to hardcore thrill-seeking individuals. From the tides of the Pacific to the flatlands of the Western Canadian prairies, this enormous country has the right fix for any adrenaline junkie.
It's hard to think of Alberta without conjuring images of this diverse province's most amazing and powerful sight—the Rocky Mountains, which tower over prairies and foothills as one moves west through the province. The Rocky Mountains are a huge tourist draw, particularly to popular ski areas like Banff, Lake Louise, Kananaskis and Jasper. But how does one enjoy the majesty of these humbling giants when there's no snow on the ground?
For
hikers and sightseers, Lake
Louise is a good base for a visit to the
Canadian Rockies. It is central
to three main hiking areas: the Lake Louise area itself, Yoho
National Park and the first 50 kilometers (30 miles) of the Icefields
Parkway. Despite their high elevation, these three hiking areas offer
trails ranging from flat lakeside strolls, to invigorating workouts that ascend
to passes or promontories.
