"Perfect for the whole family, this moderate hike is about 5km round-trip and ends with stunning views of the lake. It can be busier on the weekends, so hit the trail during the week if you want a more secluded experience. Bear spray is recommend"

This is a favourite local hike that is short and easy - a half day is plenty for this hike. The perfect family hike! The trail winds past a waterfall where it eventually leads you to two majestic turquoise lakes. You can't miss the panoramic views of Canmore that surround you every step of the hike. The trail has two routes. The easy route takes you up a gravel access road with a gentle rising slope to the lake. The difficult route takes you through the wooded trail out to the Grassi Lakes Waterfall before a steep accent to the lake. Grassi Lakes is also a popular rock climbing spot.
