Lake Minnewanka Boat Tours, Banff

Lake Minnewanka is the biggest Lake in the Banff National Park, OK it is not all natural but still the biggest.
The Tour guide on the boat will tell you about the lake and the dam and of course about the nature, history, geology and animals. And they will help you look for the imprints of people and animals in the mountains.
We took the last boat last saturday a beautiful sunny day and a perfect day for a tour on the lake. Our guide was very well informed and kinda funny
Our guide was interested in everybody on board an very friendly and helpful. For about half of the tour he would tell his story about what we see and about the lake. The other part of the trip he would walk by to answer peoples questions.
The Tour on Lake Minnewanka shows you great scenery and if you are lucky (we where not) you may even see some wildlife. The tour takes more then an hour (i believe close to 1.5hour) and that will really give you a great experience and a nice way to enjoy the national park.
If you get to Banff on a nice an sunny day think about a ride on the boat it is worth it!
Boats are going between May and October but check with the boat company for times.
