Emerald Lake
Emerald Lake, located in Yoho National Park, is a must-visit destination for families looking for an easy yet breathtaking outdoor experience. The lake’s brilliant turquoise waters make it one of the most photographed spots in the Canadian Rockies. Visitors can rent a canoe and paddle across the calm, crystal-clear water, surrounded by towering mountains and lush forests.
For those who prefer to explore on foot, the Emerald Lake Loop (5.2 km / 3.2 mi) is an easy, family-friendly hike that circles the lake. The back section of the trail feels more like a hidden forest path, adding a sense of adventure.
