点评:Moraine Lake is absolutely stunning, and its incredible, bright turquoise water will leave you amazed. Once there, you can take a short, pleasant walk along the lakeshore or head up to the famous Rockpile, which is where everyone gathers to capture their perfect Instagram photos. However, be prepared for heavy crowds. Even visiting in early June, right at the start of the season (keep in mind the access road only opens on 1st June), it was far too busy for me to fully immerse myself in the experience, especially when compared to some less-visited lakes.
My practical Info & transport:
Getting to the lake requires some planning. Personal vehicles are strictly banned on Moraine Lake Road. To travel the 14 km stretch from the Lake Louise road junction, you must either hike, bike, or use a shuttle service.The official Parks Canada shuttle costs $12.75 CAD for an adult ticket plus a non-refundable $3.50 CAD online booking fee. These buses run every 30 minutes and must be reserved well in advance. The shuttle is well organiyed as weel as on and off points. If advanced tickets are sold out, still 60% of the remaining shuttle seats are released exactly 2 days (48 hours) prior to the departure date at 8:00 AM
The Best Alternative If You Don't Have a Car:
For some, navigating the competitive booking system can be off-putting. If you miss your prefered ticket or you prefer a stress-free experience, you can book a commercial shuttle or a full-day guided tour. Since I didn't have a rental car, I chose a organized day tour that combined Moraine Lake with other iconic spots like Emerald Lake and Peyto Lake. For me, this day tour was absolutely the best and most convenient option and also good value.
翻译:梦莲湖 (Moraine Lake) 美得令人窒息,那令人难以置信的碧绿湖水定会让您流连忘返。抵达后,您可以沿着湖岸漫步,享受一段惬意的时光,或者前往著名的岩堆 (Rockpile),那里是游客们争相拍照打卡的热门地点。不过,请做好人潮拥挤的准备。即使是在六月初,也就是旅游旺季的开始(请注意,通往梦莲湖的道路要到6月1日才开放),人也多得让我无法完全沉浸其中,尤其与一些游客较少的湖泊相比更是如此。
实用信息及交通:
前往梦莲湖需要提前规划。梦莲湖路 (Moraine Lake Road) 严禁私家车通行。从路易斯湖路 (Lake Louise Road) 交汇处到梦莲湖,这段14公里的路程,您必须徒步、骑自行车或乘坐班车。加拿大公园管理局 (Parks Canada) 的官方班车成人票价为12.75加元,另加3.50加元不可退还的在线预订费。班车每30分钟一班,必须提前预订。接驳巴士组织有序,上下车点也十分便捷。如果预售票售罄,剩余接驳巴士座位的 60% 将在出发日期前两天(48 小时)早上 8:00 准时放出。
如果您没有车,最佳选择:
对于一些人来说,复杂的预订系统可能会让人望而却步。如果您错过了心仪的车票,或者想要轻松无忧的体验,您可以选择预订商业接驳巴士或参加一日游。由于我没有租车,所以我选择了一个一日游行程,将梦莲湖与其他标志性景点(如翡翠湖和佩托湖)结合起来。对我来说,这个一日游绝对是最佳、最便捷的选择,而且物超所值。
