6The Plain Of Six Glaciers Hike

Banff

The Plain Of Six Glaciers Hike is, out-and-back, 14.6 kilometers at an elevation of 464 meters. It is a moderately difficult hike that leads to shining Lake Agnes and is reputedly one of the park’s most scenic treks. Mind you, if you turn around at Lake Agnes, your distance will be different.

Of course, whether you go your own way or complete this specific hike, you will be able to take in some spectacular views. Highlights here include Lake Louise and Victoria Glacier. If you’re lucky, you might even spot such wildlife as bighorn sheep or caribou. Once you hike past the lake, the trail gets more difficult. The Plain of Six Glaciers Tea House is open in the summer too.
