There’s something romantic about a horse-drawn sleigh ride, but it’s even more special when it traces the shores of historic Lake Louise. Imagine snuggling beneath a fleece blanket on an old-fashioned sleigh as two mighty horses pull you away from Chateau Lake Louise and into such pristine wilderness that it’s protected both by Banff National Park and as a Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks UNESCO World Heritage site. The one-hour journey takes in stunning views of the Victoria Glacier, sculpted ice waterfalls, and, of course, Lake Louise. The season runs from mid-December until mid-April, snow depending. It’s recommended to make reservations in advance, particularly on special occasions like holidays or Valentine’s Day. Tours run hourly, from 1pm until 8pm.
