The first few photos are of the spectacular Lake Agnes area, located approximately 3.5km (2.2mi) hiking distance from Lake Louise. After making your way there, due stop in at the famous Tea Hut for some treats and kick back!
This one of the best hikes in Banff, the only drawback is that the trail can get congested at times.
Most of these photos were previously posted. I am reposting those photos in this "Best of Banff" series for the New users that haven't seen them yet. Some of those posts just "Slipped through the Cracks" without being seen by many anyways!

Thanks to @papa-pepper for creating these logos for @daveks!
Nice that you managed to capture those photos of the scenery without people in them. Judging by the number of people at the hut and what you said about congestion on the trail, that must have taken some doing!
A little patience and perseverance!

Beautiful series.
Thanks for looking!
Very impressive photography! Loving the scenery. lol I super can't wait to move to Canada now! Really appreciate your post @daveks. Beautifully done
Cool. When are you moving?
At the end of this year! We'll be in Hamilton, but we're definitely taking a trip out that way!
Welcome to Canada!
haha thank you!! ^_^
lakes are marvelous places
They are aren't they!
I bet that water is not cold at all. LOL
Not in the least!
Great shots! We will have to go on that hike if we ever go back to the Lake Louise area. Thanks for sharing.
It's a good one and
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing! I'm planning to visit that area sometime during the summer and I got just new ideas from your post.
Glad to hear that, have fun!
The first one is pretty. The water looks so blue and clear. Why isn't there anyone on the lake? Must be too cold. The image with the steps going down, nice creative shot. Cheers!
They may not allow canoes up there for some reason, park bylaw maybe!
Thanks Rudy
Upvoted just for the chipmunk pic, JK they are all great. Definitely on my list of places to go someday!
Thanks!
I love Canada!
Oh Canada!
