The Big Beehive hike is a rewarding adventure that offers breathtaking views and a connection to Banff's rich history of recreation. Suitable for most moderately fit hikers, the trail climbs above the iconic turquoise waters of Lake Louise, culminating in astounding vistas of the Bow Valley and the surrounding peaks.

Along the way, consider stopping at the famous Lake Agnes Teahouse, a historic hut where you can enjoy refreshments before continuing your journey. For those seeking an extra challenge, add the Little Beehive trail, a short detour for another spectacular view.

For the ultimate Lake Louise experience, consider combining the Big Beehive with the Plain of Six Glaciers Trail. This extension takes you deeper into the mountains, offering up-close views of glacial formations and some of the best alpine scenery in the area. With so many options, the Big Beehive hike is a versatile and unforgettable way to explore one of Banff’s most iconic landscapes.
