The sight of the emerald green water and rugged peaks and glaciers hits you viscerally. You’ve never seen anything so dramatically beautiful.  Improvement District No. 9 is world famous for its turquoise lakes, the Victoria Glacier, soaring mountain backdrop, world class resorts, and incredible outdoor recreation opportunities. Surrounded by a lifetime’s worth of jaw-dropping sights and adventures, Lake Louise is a rare place that must be experienced to be believed.

THE HAMLET OF LAKE LOUISE

The hamlet of Lake Louise is located just off the Trans-Canada Highway (Highway 1). It has a small shopping centre, with a liquor store, a grocery store, a bar, a sporting goods store, restaurants/cafes, shops, a visitor information centre and a range of accommodation options.  There is also a medical clinic and recreation grounds.

EXPLORE THE HIDDEN GEMS OF LAKE LOUISE

These magnificent experiences are spread around the Lake Louise area like ripples in its emerald waters. These are the places and experiences locals love, so we’re sure you’ll love them too. Step off the beaten track and dive deeper into the hidden gems of the Lake Louise area.

SUMMER IN LAKE LOUISE

Explore summer in Lake Louise and make the most of the early glowing dawn, the warmth of midday, and the lingering dusk. To get up close with the iconic Lake Louise, you canoe or even take your stand up paddleboard. The hiking in the Lake Louise area is some of the most scenic and spectacular in the world. Ranging from walks and easy hikes to multi-day backcountry epics, experiencing this jaw-dropping landscape by foot will be an unforgettable experience. You could walk around the Lake Louise Shoreline Trail to the Victoria Glacier, hike up to the famous Lake Agnes Teahouse, or be wowed by the glowing larches during the fall.

WINTER IN LAKE LOUISE

During the winter, Lake Louise transforms into a magical playground. Brilliant blue skies contrast with the sparkling white peaks, the air is the crispest you’ve ever breathed, and there is a wealth of winter activities to enjoy.  Try ice skating on Lake Louise or at the outdoor NHL sized hockey rink on the recreation grounds.  Or have a go at snowshoeing – it is very easy to learn and a special feeling to walk through the stillness and quiet of snow-covered woods.

SKI & SNOWBOARD

This place is bigger than your brain can comprehend. The mountains that surround you are so rugged, their jagged and twisted shapes towering into the sky. Glaciers plunge to the valley floor far below while the lakes and rivers at their base lie frozen and still. Terrain that is so astounding it feels surreal. As you make turn after turn, floating through the light, silky snow, a massive grin erupts on your face. The feelings of joy and exhilaration are something you’ll remember forever.

Improvement District No. 9 is a paradise for skiers and snowboarders. Three world class resorts, the rugged terrain of the Rocky Mountains, light and fluffy snow, and the most stunningly scenic backdrop you’ll ever experience all add up to a must-visit location for snow lovers.
