Check into the legendary Fairmont Lake Louise, on the shore of the most famous lake in the Rockies. Drink in staggering views of the baby blue lake from the hotel’s restaurants and bars.

There’s no shortage of activities to keep you busy here. Head out onto the lake for a blissful paddle in a bright red canoe, get out of your comfort zone and try rock climbing on the multi-colored quartzite cliffs. Or go for a hike to the Plain of the Six Glaciers Teahouse, to enjoy a hot drink while you watch glacial ice tumble down Mt. Victoria.

Surrounded by mountain peaks, this iconic hotel is blissful in winter and summer. And just wait until you see the spa.
