Professional naturalists lead our Mountain Adventure Program, guiding guests on year-round adventures in the spirit of Lake Louise’s Swiss guiding past. Head into Banff National Park on a day hike or paddle the lake in a historical “voyageur” canoe. In winter, snowshoe up to the Fairview Lookout for a bird’s eye view. Cross-country ski or venture to the frozen waterfalls at Johnston Canyon.

Take a seat in one of six outstanding restaurants right at the resort. Menus vary from upscale Western Canadian mountain cuisine and authentic Italian to French-Canadian favorites, burgers, British afternoon tea and gourmet deli bites. Tuck into tender Alberta grass-fed beef and homegrown vegetables by candlelight or share some gooey cheese fondue over Swiss brews. Sip wildflower-infused cocktails or sample German bratwurst. Try something new every night. Bon appétit!

Bond over hiking, canoeing, dogsledding through the wintry woods and ice skating on the frozen lake—right outside our doorstep. Or join our playful and fun resort family programs year-round. Our experienced recreation staff organizes anything from nature-inspired outings for kids, photo scavenger hunts, indoor movie campouts, tubing at Lake Louise Ski Resort and movies to guided snowshoeing excursion and learning about the different constellations by the outdoor firepit.

Rekindle your creativity, forge a new path and rediscover the joy in your life. Quiet your mind and just be. Led by award-winning thought leaders, our transformative wellness retreats combine the best of immersive outdoor adventure with mind-body connection, nourishing mountain fare and deep introspection. Of course the soulful natural beauty of this special place makes it all the more inspiring. Join us in Lake Louise for a spring or fall wellness retreat.

When the snowflakes start falling, Lake Louise is pure magic. Take a horse-drawn sleigh ride through the woods, or get outside on cross-country skis or snowshoes. Try dogsledding, ice climbing, tubing and pond hockey, or celebrate the season at a winter festival. Snowboard and downhill at three acclaimed alpine resorts. Warm up afterwards with craft cocktails by the campfire or over fondue in the hotel’s Swiss-style pub. There’s no Winter Wonderland more enchanting.
