Hit the open water this summer at Minnewanka!

Feel the fresh mountain air, watch for wildlife and get adventurous on Banff's largest lake. Choose from one of our acclaimed cruises and explore under the lead of a knowledgeable guide on a heated, covered boat. Or set your own course with a kayak, canoe or motorboat rental.

Back on the shore, stop by the Black Anchor Snack Shop for a picnic lunch. It just feels like summer out here!
