  Frozen lakes and the spring lull

  1 Nis – 10 Haz · geneldeSezon dışı kapanış

  Lake Louise and Moraine stay iced over well into June and the ski hills shut in May, so the postcard turquoise is the one thing spring cannot deliver. The trade is an empty town and the cheapest rooms of the year. Kaynak ↗

Çok kalabalık — Park summer peak, Canada Day

• Sezon

  Park summer peak

  1 Tem – 31 AğuOkul tatilleriKalabalıkErken rezervasyon

  Canada Day starts it and the school year ends it. Lake Louise parking fills before sunrise, the townsite runs at capacity, and every shuttle and campsite needs booking weeks out. Kaynak ↗

• Risk

  Wildfire smoke season

  1 Tem – 15 Eyl · genelde

  Smoke from fires in British Columbia and Alberta settles in the Bow Valley most summers, worst in August. Peaks vanish from view for days, air quality warnings go up, and a nearby fire can close trails and the parkway. Kaynak ↗

• Tatil

  Canada Day

  1 TemResmî tatilKapanışlarKalabalık

  1 July is a statutory holiday across the country, moved to 2 July when it falls on a Sunday. Banks, government offices and many shops close, towns put on daytime concerts and parades with fireworks after dark, and hotels and ferries fill when it makes a long weekend. Kaynak ↗

  Alpine meadows in flower

  15 Tem – 15 Ağu · geneldeKır çiçekleri ve çiçeklenme

  Sunshine Meadows and the Healy Pass benches flower for about a month once the last snow patches go, usually from mid-July. It is the only window when the high trails are both open and dry.

• Kapanış

  Bear-season trail closures

  15 Tem – 1 Eki · geneldeRisk

  When the buffaloberry ripens the grizzlies drop to the valley trails and Parks Canada closes them, or restricts them to tight groups of four, at a day's notice. Check the day you walk, not the week before. Kaynak ↗

  Elk rut in the townsite

  1 Eyl – 15 Eki · geneldeÇiftleşme sezonuRisk

  Bulls bugle on the golf course and the Bow River flats through the autumn and the town fences off the school field. They look tame and are not; thirty metres is the rule.

  Larch season

  15 Eyl – 5 Eki · geneldeSonbahar renkleriKalabalık

  The alpine larches go gold for roughly two weeks around the end of September. Larch Valley and Healy Pass are the classic walks and both are shoulder to shoulder on the good weekends.

  Christmas and New Year

  The town fills for a fortnight and prices go with it, on a base that is usually still thin. The Johnston Canyon icewalk and the Lake Louise rink carry most of the load. Kaynak ↗

  Skating on Lake Louise

  20 Ara – 15 Mar · geneldeBuz sezonu

  The hotel clears a rink and a long track on the lake once the ice takes, usually just before Christmas. Skate hire is on the shore and the ice under the Victoria Glacier is the reason people queue for it. Kaynak ↗
