Moraine Lake is an absolute marvel! 😍 The serene turquoise waters and towering peaks are a dream come true for nature enthusiasts. The Moraine Lake Bus Company seems like a lifesaver, especially for catching that magical sunrise 🌅. Can't wait to plan my trip and explore this breathtaking wonder. Thanks for the insights, Caitlin! 🚌🏞

Hi Very beautiful views at Moraine lake

[@caitlinlaurent]

It really is!

Looks awesome! We're planning on a trip to the Canadian Rockies this September. We were planning on booking tickets with the public Shuttle, but the government website was giving us issues and making us frustrated, so we ended up booking with the Moraine Lake Bus Company. So much easier and it doesn't cost that much more. Sorry, I ended up watching your video after we already purchased the tickets, otherwise we would have used the affiliate link.

Hi Nate, no worries at all! I hope there was some helpful information in the video for you. I hope you have an amazing trip! I know travelling in with Moraine Lake Bus Co will make it a super easy and enjoyable journey :)

@@BCosindas3 I’m so glad they were helpful! I have a few blog posts which might also be helpful if you need anything! I hope you have an amazing trip and the Jasper fires haven’t impacted your trip too much. It has been devastating :(

@@caitlinlaurent Thank you, Caitlin! We had hoped to spend time up in Jasper after our stay in Banff, but just changed our plans to explore more in Banff Area. Going a little north to stay near Johnston Cyn.

thank you so much for watching and for your comment! this vlog was filmed in September so it's a beautiful time to visit. Best of luck & my blog is there if you need any extra information :)

Hey Caitlin Thanks for this information. I have booked the shuttle to Moraine Lake for 6:25am. Now I am wondering if I will have to book for Lake Louise separately or I can use same ticket? I have booked through Moraine lake bus company. Please suggest best possible way to go about it. Thanks

[@caitlinlaurent]

Hi, it will depend on what type of ticket you booked! They have bundle options, or just direct to Moraine Lake. I would recommend reaching out to the Moraine Lake Bus Company to check in with them directly :) You can also drive yourself to Lake Louise if you need, just be prepared for traffic :)

How much time do you think we would need to allocate If we are doing the Larch valley hike? We are very athletic and experienced hikers. We would also like to do the rock pile hike and just walk around the lake.

[@caitlinlaurent]

Hi! If you are experienced hikers I would recommend doing the Sentinel Pass trail, it takes you through Larch Valley and further up a pass to a beautiful ridge! It is 11.1km with 749m of elevation gain so I would estimate the time you need based on your usual hiking pace. The rockpile is only a 5-10 minute walk from the parking lot and the lake shore will be less than an hour. Allow plenty of time for photos, considering it's such a beautiful location. I can't give you an exact amount of time you need as that is completely up to you and dependant on your hiking pace, but overestimate, worst case you get to spend a little more time in this beautiful spot! Good luck :)

Hey, very insightful video. Banff has been on my bucket list for a while now. I'am planning to visit banff in early May 2024. But, it was stated somewhere that the road to Moraine lake would be closed until early June due to harsh weather conditions and risk of avalanches. Is that correct? I enjoyed watching your channel and find it to be very informative. Among the best travel content I've come across. Keep doing what you're doing 👏👏

[@caitlinlaurent]

Hi Manish, Thank you so much for your kind words! You are correct that the road will be closed until early June. This is standard as the road in sits on a major avalanche path so as long as winter conditions are around - the road will remain closed unfortunately! Best of luck with the rest of your trip though

It’s absolutely horrific that you can’t drive there anymore , now you have to take a 100$ bus instead of driving your own vehicle for free. Simple solution should have been expanding the road network.

[@caitlinlaurent]

I disagree, "expanding the road network" would result in such unnecessary destruction in what is one of the most beautiful places and national parks. Yes, not being able to drive and go on your own schedule does suck. We first visited when you could still drive so I get it. BUT we also know exactly how chaotic the traffic was because of the mass tourism and it was a nightmare. There are plenty of different bus companies you can take and the Parks Canada shuttle starts as low as $7 so I would argue there are still affordable options that make this area accessible to everyone.

[@JP-dz7zu]

I agree. My family of 5 would be $500 for a short bus ride. Makes it unreasonable to go walk around a lake for a couple hours
