Get ready for a view that will truly take your breath away. Moraine Lake, with its impossibly turquoise water, is nestled in the majestic Valley of the Ten Peaks. To get that famous postcard shot, you'll take a short and easy 15-minute walk up the Rockpile trail from the shuttle drop-off point. Remember, you can't drive your own car here, so you'll need to book a spot on a shuttle bus in advance to experience this unforgettable piece of the Rockies. I highly recommend coming for sunrise. You can either book a private shuttle or try your luck with an Alpine Start shuttle ticket. They do sell out quickly!
