With gorgeous views, wildflowers, wildlife, alpine lakes, and glaciers, it’s no surprise that hiking and sightseeing in Lake Louise is an iconic attraction. There are a variety of things to explore, but if you are looking for an enriching summer adventure, escape the crowds at Lake Louise Ski Resort Summer Gondola.
Soar 6893 feet up on the sightseeing gondola to panoramic views. Visitors of all ages and abilities have a chance to explore the alpine here. As you are travelling on the chairlift, keep your eye out and your camera ready! The view is spectacular and there are many opportunities to spot wildlife. This is one of the best and safest places to view a grizzly bear.

Above the sightseeing chair, there are a variety of scenic trails. Ranging from 1.7 km to 2.5 km (round trip), there is so much to discover at Lake Louise Ski Resort’s alpine in the summer.
Get to know some of Banff National Park’s most impressive animals in the Interpretive Centre located at the top of the summer gondola. The displays and stations have a wealth of information on the area and what makes this place so special. Even if you spend most of your time outdoors in the park, you will still learn so much more about the plants and animals that make up this beautiful area.
