Moraine Lake in Banff Canada

Hiking to Moraine Lake in Banff Canada is less than a quarter mile round trip to be exact, it is an extremely short walk up to the viewpoint. I feel that this short walk can be enjoyed by anyone.

Moraine Lake is one of the most interestingly blue lakes I have had the pleasure of visiting.

The Trail Start to Moraine Lake

Starting the trail to Moraine Lake is an easy start, paved, and flat. It doesn’t take away from any of the beauty though.

There is beautiful fence work lining the beginning of the trail, and you are quickly surrounded by towering green pines.

After a short stroll on the trail you will come to a cool wooden bridge crossing a creek. When I was visiting the water was running well, and the sounds and views were incredible, as well as the small amount of mist in the air.
