Devil's Thumb is a Lake Louise hike for those who want to see it all! It is quite challenging, but very rewarding as you get views of both Lake Louise and Lake Agnes from the top!

The trail is just under 12 km round trip with more than 900 meters of elevation gain and there is some scrambling required.

PS: Parking at Lake Louise gets extremely busy during the summer months. You'll either have to arrive super early or consider using Parks Canada Shuttle.
