*** About Moraine Lake: Moraine Lake, located in Banff National Park, Alberta, is famed for its distinctive cobalt blue waters, a result of light refracting off the rock flour deposited in the lake by surrounding glaciers. Nestled in the Valley of the Ten Peaks, this glacially fed lake reaches its crest in late June, offering picturesque views that attract millions of visitors annually. The lake has not only graced countless postcards and promotional imagery for Canada but also holds cultural significance, appearing on the reverse side of the former Canadian twenty dollar bill. Its surrounding trails and proximity to other natural attractions make it a popular spot for hiking, photography, and nature watching.
