Landslide Lake Natural Area
+ My Favorites
Landslide Lake was so-called because it appears to have formed when a river was closed off by a landslide. However, a source has never been found. The region includes Whirlpool Ridge--a high piece of land that juts into the North Saskatchewan River Valley and causes the river to change directions.
Address: . | Rocky Mountain House, AB

Peyto Lake and Bow Summit
+ My Favorites
The highest point on the Icefields Parkway is Bow Summit, 2088 m above sea level. Here the road crosses alpine meadows near the source of the Bow River before dropping into the Mistaya Valley. From the lower parking area at Bow Summit, a short trail leads uphill to the Peyto Lake lookout. Bow Summit is located 190 km (118.75 mi) south of Jasper and 40 km (25 mi) north of Lake Louise.

Hector Lake
+ My Favorites
The beautiful green waters of Hector Lake spread below a fresh carpet of lush forest. While the southern part of the lake is forest-enclosed, the northern end is set hard against rugged mountains, which is typical of a lake formed in a glacial basin. View Mount Balfour and the Waputik Range to the southwest. The lake is located 214 km (133.75 mi) south of Jasper and 16 km (10 mi) north of Lake Louise.
