Lake Louise, part of Banff National Park in the Canadian Rockies, is an amazing glacier-fed lake ringed by high peaks and a sweet chateau. Hiking trails wind up for bird’s-eye views. There’s a canoe dock in summer, and a skating rink on the frozen lake in winter.

Right beside Lake Louise is Moraine Lake, and less than 30 minutes away is Bow Lake. For both Lake Louise and Moraine Lake, you’re encouraged to arrive super early, even before sunrise, for a parking spot.

Of course, you can also ski Lake Louise if you can brave the cold!
