Another must-see lake. During the summer, enjoy canoeing across the beautiful lake with its amazing, turquoise colour. There are also a number of hikes around the lake to add to your adventure. Note that the road to Moraine Lake is closed during the winter due to heavy snowfall and high avalanche risk. Depending on the weather conditions, the road opens between the third week of May and the first week of June, and closes in October after the Canadian Thanksgiving weekend.
