Lake Minnewanka Loop

Fodor's Review:

It's easy to spend the day along this 15-mi (25-km) loop. Traveling clockwise, you can explore Lower Bankhead and Upper Bankhead, an abandoned coal mine and mining community. Just 2 mi (3 km) farther you come to Lake Minnewanka, the largest lake in the park at 12 mi (20 km). Boat and fishing rentals are available at the lake. Farther along are more lakes and picnic areas.
