MORAINE LAKE

MORAINE LAKE

Situated in the Valley of the Ten Peaks sits the absolutely stunning Moraine Lake. Often inaccessible due to traffic restrictions, feel confident knowing that you won't be turned away. Go for a canoe, peaceful lunch or head out on one of the many hiking trails that begin from here.
