12The Bourgeau Lake Trail

Banff

This is also a challenging hike. The out-and-back distance here is 13.8 kilometers with an elevation of 960 meters. This is one of the trails the locals enjoy hiking. Additionally, it is tourist-free too.

The trail is highlighted by what makes the Canadian Rockies special: alpine lakes, stunning views, thundering waterfalls, and wildlife. What makes this trail challenging is mainly the section past Bourgeau Lake as you’re heading to Harvey Pass. If you keep hiking beyond the lake it tacks on another 2.4+ kilometers. Additionally, no matter when you go, the pass is reportedly covered in ice and snow.
