Holiday Tips For First Time Visitors
By Topper on Oct 17, 2008 in Travel
If this is your first trip to the Rocky Mountains between Alberta and British Columbia you are in for a real surprise as to how much there is to see and do. Planning your holiday in Lake Louise Canada is going to be easy since you have different things to choose from, so everyone can find exactly what they want to do. Whether you arrive on Canada coach tours or take a train trip in Canada to the Rockies, once you get to Lake Louise there are some definite sights you will want to see.
One definite trip you will want to make is to Moraine Lake, just outside of Lake Louise. This lake is only open in the summer months but the beautiful view and deep green-blue colors of the lake against the mountains make great photography opportunities. Another one of a kind outing is the gondola that takes you up the mountain for a completely different perspective on the area. You may also want to take about a half hour drive into Golden, British Columbia, where there is lots more skiing, fishing, hiking and recreational activities in both summer and winter. In the summer months horseback riding and whitewater rafting are popular options for visitors, with miles and miles of trails and waterways to cover. If you want a bit more shopping and nightlife, travel into Calgary or Edmonton and enjoy the fine dining and cultural activities that happen year round.
