Lake Minnewanka Boat Tours

Frommer's Review

These very popular scenic and wildlife-viewing trips in glassed-in motor cruisers take place on Lake Minnewanka, a glacial lake wedged between two mountain ranges. These trips -- usually 2 hours long -- are among those excursions that nearly every visitor to Banff ends up taking, so unless you want to be part of a huge shuffling throng, try to go early in the day. Reservations are suggested. In high season, there are five sailings a day and buses depart daily from Banff to meet these departures, both from the bus station and from most hotels.
