Itinerary description
|
We went up to Lake Louise very early because the parking lot fills up very quickly and we started our route along the edge of the lake after taking some photos on its shore in front of the famous hotel. When we reach the end of the lake we begin the ascent towards the tea house (Teahouse) where we arrive with a little rain and take the opportunity to eat something and continue the climb to reach the viewpoint (Lookout), the last section being a scree of our own. of the moraine caused by the retreat of the glaciers.
We begin the return to the Teahouse and a couple of kilometers later we find the crossroads that will take us to Lake Agnes on a climb in the middle of the forest. We reach the lake at its opposite end to its exit and go around it to reach the Lake Agnes Teahouse where we take the opportunity to take a second break and begin our descent towards Lake Louise, passing first through the small Lake Mirror.
A relatively easy route and highly recommended for its views.

¿Había hielo en cotas altas en esa época del año? Lo intenté hace varios años en junio y no se podía pasar por Agnes Lake
Hola Paco, había un poco de Nieve pero se podía caminar bien.
