Hike from Moraine Lake along alpine meadows to the Consolation Lakes. On the way you can also see the Quadra Glacier.

What you can experience here

The beautiful trail starts at the car park at Moraine Lake. Along the way you have views of alpine meadows and the Quadra Glacier. As Grizzly bears are very common in the area, the hike is often only allowed in groups of at least 4 people. An information board at Moraine Lake or the visitor centre will tell you about the current situation.

Careful planning is essential for your visit, as Moraine Lake is closed to private vehicles all year round. The only way to visit the lake is to book a shuttle from June to mid October.
