Two Jack Lake is a picturesque emerald green lake in Banff National Park with a sweeping view of Mount Rundle. The landscape attracts both visitors and locals in search of some fresh air. Its easy accessibility from Banff makes it a great place to catch sunset or sunrise.

No matter the season, Two Jack Lake is always a great stop in Banff. Visitors can enjoy swimming, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and hiking in the summer. In the winter, it's a popular place to go for an ice skate, take some photographs, or snowshoe along the surrounding trails.
