  1. Will parking for Takakkaw falls be an issue after leaving emerald lake for the morning ? I have my 14 year old and 8.5 year old and husband on our first trip to Canada. We are so stoked ! We are thinking about doing the iceline trail after emerald lake in and out option. Does this sound do able with emerald lake ? Do we still need a warm layer in July ? Thank you so much for all of this incredible information !

    1. It sounds doable if you start early and are fairly fast hikers! We’ve never had parking issues issues at Tak Falls, but July is high season and sounds like you could be hitting it mid day, which is the busiest time of the day at popular attractions.

  2. Hello, this is a great and informative article. Twin Falls should also be mentioned, and although Yoho Glacier is no longer accessible, it is still worth the hike.

  3. Thank you for the tips! We are planning our first trip to the Canadian Rockies in September and the information provided is incredibly helpful.

  4. Great write up!! If we wanted to do an in and out, could we do counter clockwise to catch Laughing Falls & turn back around the 2nd glacial lake? Would that route be about as nice? Thank you!
