Lake Louise is a small village located 57 kilometres (35 mi) west of the Town of Banff inside Banff National Park. Known as Canada's "Diamond in the Wilderness," and the "Hiking Capital of Canada", Lake Louise offers outdoor lovers a great deal of recreational and signseeing opportunities. Known to be one of North America's best downhill ski facilities, Lake Louise is a popular winter destination. During the summer months, the area offers unparalleled wildlife viewing, spectacular alpine scenery, and numerous hiking trails.

No visit to Lake Louise is complete without taking in the scenic vista of the Valley of the Ten Peaks at Moraine Lake. This scene was pictured on the back of the $20 Canadian banknote.
