Lake Louise is located about 200 km from Banff
in the Banff National Park and is renowned for its stunning natural beauty.
The beautiful summer scenery is transformed
into a vista of frozen lakes and waterfalls, snow covered mountains
and alpine woodlands in winter.
Lake Louise offers plenty of outdoor activities
including ice skating and snow shoeing, as well as skiing,
horse drawn sleigh, and for the adventurous even dog sledding!
The Lake Louise Ski Area covers forty-two hundred acres
of beautiful mountain terrain and with high speed ski lifts
and 139 marked runs it is the perfect spot for any skier or snowboarder.
Dogsledding through the forests of Lake Louise is a true adventure.
Towed by a team of ten dogs the sled speeds past trees
and through tight forest paths.
Enjoy the slower pace of a charming horse drawn sleigh ride
through magnificent scenery as two draft horses take you around the lake
and even out onto the ice itself.
There are several accommodation options around Lake Louise
but the most impressive is the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise,
right on the shores of the Lake itself.
Each facet of Lake Louise is an incredible holiday adventure in itself
- but when they're combined you'll find a truly magical winter experience.
