Beautiful Lake Along Icefields Parkway.
After visiting Bow Falls we departed from Banff and traveled along the Icefields Parkway towards Jasper. Our next stop was at Bow Lake which happened to be along the Icefields Parkway in Banff National Park. It is the lake closest to the headwaters of the Bow River which runs down past Banff town to Calgary and beyond.
Bow Lake is a small but beautiful lake surrounded by the high peaks of the Waputik Range of mountains. Water in the lake is the meltwater from the Bow Glacier and is turquoise in colour with a bluish tinge. We walked down from the parking area to the historical Num-Ti-Jah Lodge, a quaint wooden building with a red sloping roof, to the lakeside. The water was very calm and serene and reflected the images of the mountain peaks.
