Moraine Lake | Most Beautiful Travel

Moraine Lake is a glacially fed lake in Banff National Park, 14 kilometres (8.7 mi) outside the Village of Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada. It is situated in the Valley of the Ten Peaks, at an elevation of approximately 6,183 feet (1,885 m). The lake has a surface area of 50 hectares (120 acres).

The lake, being glacially fed, does not reach its crest until mid to late June. When it is full, it reflects a distinctive shade of blue. The colour is due to the refraction of light off the rock flour deposited in the lake on a continual basis,More info:wiki

MORAINE LAKE

Its waters are the most amazing colour, a vivid shade of turquoise that changes in intensity through the summer as the glaciers melt. Set in the rugged Valley of the Ten Peaks, Moraine Lake is surrounded by mountains, waterfalls, and rock piles, creating a scene so stunning it almost seems unreal. Sit lakeside and absorb the sights and pure mountain air, or explore further by canoeing and hiking. It’s an iconically jaw-dropping place that is sure to leave a lasting impression.

Nearby is another equally enchanting lake called Lake Louise which offers a wonderful scenery, a number of hiking trails from easy to a very challenging but rewarding.

Moraine Lake in Banff National Park is one if not the most popular lake in Canada and the very typical landmark for Banff.

The popularity for this place has multiplied during the last years, especially for photographers because of the extremely beautiful lake view towards the mountains in the background. The best timing is probably during sunrise when the first rays will illuminate the top parts of the mountains in beautiful red and orange colors.

#1       IS MORAINE LAKE STILL FROZEN?,More info:blog.buzzbishop

On the opening weekend of the Moraine Lake Rd, tourists were greeted by a very shallow water level in the lake awaiting melt from the mountains to fill it up to its pristine greenness.

The pre-spring runoff levels meant the lake bottom was accessible to tourists making the lake appear still frozen at the end of May. What water is in the lake has a thin frosty crust on it, but there’s enough of a snow pack to wander around.
