How far apart are Lake Louise and lake moraine
Lake Louise | Only 20 minutes drive from Moraine Lake is another famous mountain town hiding another gem of the Rockies, the same name lake. You can stay here, and visit both lakes in one day, and even do some hikes.
Can you walk between Lake Louise and lake moraine
Yes. You can walk from Lake Louise to Moraine Lake, but I wouldn't recommend it. It is about a 1.6-kilometre walk (20 minutes) to get to the entrance of Moraine Lake Road. From there, it is another 14-kilometre walk one way uphill, until you get to the actual lake.
Is Moraine Lake closer to Banff or Lake Louise
Located just outside the village of Lake Louise, you'll find Moraine Lake in Banff National Park. Situated 20-minutes south of Louise and 50-minutes south of Peyto, Moraine is also a glacially-fed lake. I was in awe and most stunned by the mountain views encompassing the lake.
Is Lake Louise the same as Moraine Lake
Moraine Lake is located 14 km away from Lake Louise at the end of the Moraine Lake Rd. Everyone that visits Banff wants to see Moraine Lake, and it's easy to understand why.

Even if you are short of time, it is really possible to visit both Lake Louise and Moraine Lake in one day by making a day trip. Pick a few things to do from my list at each lake that best suits you.
How long is the shuttle between Lake Louise and Moraine Lake
It takes around 25 minutes to get to Moraine Lake from the Park and Ride, as there are no other stops along the way. The Parks Canada shuttle operates from mid-May to mid-October for Lake Louise and June 1 to mid-October for Moraine Lake.
Which is more beautiful Lake Louise or Moraine Lake
Moraine Lake is only half the size of its nearby neighbour Lake Louise, but perhaps even more scenic. It's situated at an elevation of 1883 meters in the beautiful Valley Of The Ten Peaks in Banff National Park. This glacier-fed lake becomes the most intense and vivid shade of turquoise blue.
How much time do you need at Moraine Lake
You could spend as little as an hour at Moraine Lake if all you plan to do is climb the Rock Pile trail or take a short walk along the lakeshore, but likely you'll want to allow a bit more time to soak in the stunning beauty. You may want to spend a half or full day to do one of the many hikes in the area.
