The Lake Minnewanka Cruise is an hour-long panoramic cruise along Banff's largest lake. The grand and storied lake is best observed from the water as its scale makes it difficult to appreciate from the lakeshore. Visitors have been cruising along the lake to take in its natural beauty for over a century.

At the lake's end lies Devil’s Gap, a unique natural feature that looks out to the east and the plains of Alberta while enveloped in a mountain amphitheater. In the distant east, verdant prairie land peeks through, providing a captivating backdrop. To explore this hidden gem on foot, one must embark on a 30-kilometer journey into the remote Canadian Rockies and camp along the shores. However, this can be reached on a Lake Minnewanka Cruise in 30 minutes, making the cruise well worth it.
