Looking for the best things to do in Lake Louise this summer?

Start with the Lake Louise Summer Gondola! Swipe along to explore ⭐️

Whether you’re visiting Banff National Park for the first time or returning for another trip, this is a summer experience worth adding to your itinerary.



Your adventure begins with a ride on the Lake Louise Summer Gondola or open chairlift. As you climb above the valley floor, take in panoramic views of Lake Louise, Victoria Glacier, and the surrounding Canadian Rockies.

The Lake Louise Summer Gondola is one of the best places in Banff National Park to observe wildlife from a safe distance. Keep your eyes on the mountainside for grizzly bears, black bears, elk, deer, mountain goats, and other native wildlife as they roam their natural habitat below.

At the top of the gondola, discover a network of scenic hiking trails that showcase the beauty of the Canadian Rockies. Wander through alpine meadows, take in breathtaking viewpoints, and enjoy fresh mountain air as you explore at your own pace.

After a morning of exploring, make your way to Whitehorn Bistro for a well-earned lunch. Located at the top of the gondola, the restaurant pairs locally inspired dishes with spectacular mountain views, making it the perfect place to relax before heading back down the mountain.

Whether you’re visiting Lake Louise for the day or exploring Banff National Park for the week, the Lake Louise Summer Gondola is an experience you won’t want to miss.

Save this guide for your next trip and share it with your travel group as you plan your perfect summer adventure!
