Louise Lake, surrounded by dense forest, boasts stunning beauty. This gem-like lake is cold and elegant, and sheltered by the Victoria Mountains. Louise Lake is one of the most popular photo spots in North America because of the clear and green water from the source of the Victoria Glacier. When the lake freezes between November and June of the following year, it becomes a picturesque ice-skating rink, revealing the beauty of nature with the lake and mountains following the north wind. From Banff town, it takes a two-hour drive via the Bow Valley Parkway to reach. Along the way, spectacular mountains and lakes will leave you with unforgettable memories, occasionally encountering wild animals.

Surprised Corner is a viewpoint that offers a panoramic view of the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel and the Bow River. It features an observation deck where visitors can take photos and admire the scenery. Since the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel is not open to the public, Surprised Corner has become an important location for capturing the hotel's beauty.
The Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel, a historic castle hotel, has been standing for over a hundred years. It stands tall amidst the majestic Rocky Mountains, overlooking the clear waters of the Bow River.
From this location, one can enjoy a distant view of the Victoria Glacier and Lake Louise, which are over ten kilometers away. It also offers a spectacular view of the entire Banff National Park visitor center.
You may have seen the scenic views from Surprised Corner in other places before, as it is also one of the filming locations for "Armless Mountain."
