Vermilion Lakes Viewpoint
We would love to hear about your recent experience. Please share any pictures and review of the place you visited. We greatly appreciate your feedback!
Just as you arrive in Banff, turn right just after the exit from the highway to stop and gaze at the reflections of Mount Rundle on the surface of the lake. The lake is still and cool, and you are undisturbed apart from a couple other onlookers also savoring the serenity.
Whether you go in the morning, afternoon or sunset, you will be greeted by different skies and colors. Also drive slowly and you may see deers along the road.
