Hiker’s Club:
Moraine Lake

summer trip | daily from JUNE 7 - OCTober 13

Ride + Sunrise + Hike

The sunrise at Moraine Lake is seriously one of those can't-miss experiences in the Canadian Rockies. Picture this: gorgeous reds, pinks and oranges lighting up the sky, with every color perfectly reflected in those stunning emerald waters.
Trust us, it's totally worth setting that early alarm!

Our Hikers Club trip offers two different time departures,
and it is perfect if you're like us and love hitting the trails when the day is fresh, then kicking back and relax all afternoon.
