Lake Louise is breathtaking year-round. Before winter, its emerald green waters mirror the towering, snow-capped peaks around it. As winter deepens, the lake freezes over, becoming a vast, serene expanse of ice surrounded by majestic mountains. Whether you're enjoying the reflections or skating on its frozen surface, Lake Louise offers an unforgettable experience for nature lovers.

Emerald Lake is equally stunning. Before the freeze, its crystal-clear waters reflect the surrounding peaks and forests, creating a vibrant green contrast with the autumn landscape. Once frozen, it transforms into a peaceful, snow-covered scene, offering a magical escape in every season.

Peyto Lake, with its brilliant turquoise hue, shines before winter sets in, reflecting the rugged mountains around it. As the lake freezes, it becomes a serene icy landscape, framed by snowy peaks. The view from Bow Summit is especially captivating, with the lake's wolf-head shape still visible.
