Forty minutes southeast of Jasper, you'll find the world's second-largest glacier-fed lake. It's also one of the Rockies' most visited spots, thanks to its deep blue hue and the beauty of the mountains that surround it. The large lake invites visitors to fish, row, kayak, hike and horseback ride; another favorite activity is the narrated cruise, which points out pertinent sites and includes a visit to the diminutive, tree-studded Spirit Island. The lake's name comes from the French term for "bad" or "wicked" and was bestowed on it by a Belgian missionary. His reasoning remains a mystery in the eyes of all who visit. Hours: Daily dawn-dusk Admission: Daily Pass Adult CAD8.90; Senior CAD7.65; Child CAD4.45; Family CAD17.80 |
