Overview

YOUR LAKE LOUISE ADVENTURE STARTS HERE!
Elevate your perspective in an alpine oasis where grizzlies freely roam, and unobstructed panoramic views prevail
Leave the crowds behind and soar to 2101m (6893 ft) any day of the week on our sightseeing gondola. Enjoy the stunning scenery, grand glaciers, lush carpets of wildflowers, and crystal-clear springs while observing wildlife in their natural element.
Indulge yourself in a variety of savoury dining options while you take in the views from one of our large outdoor patios or spaciously seated dining rooms.
