Fall in the Canadian Rockies = Larch Season

📍Larch Valley at Moraine Lake in Banff National Park.

There are a few different hikes you can do to participate in the larch season madness. Moraine Lake in Banff and Highwood Pass in Kananaskis are great places to see them

Our favourite larch hikes are:

🥾 Arethusa Cirque (4.5 km)

🥾 Ptarmigan Cirque (3.4 km)

Or without the kids:

🥾 Larch Valley (8.9 km)

If you hiked in the Canadian Rockies during larch season, please give me your other favourite trails so we can hit another hike this season.

YOUR GUIDE TO VISITING RIDING MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK 🇨🇦 {ad}

Riding Mountain is the only (easily accessible) national park in Manitoba and it has a unique feel to it.

This national park is different from other national parks we visited. It has a slower, cottage-country feel, with the cute town of Wasagaming right in the middle of it all.

We spent two days exploring with the kids, and here are some of our favourites.

📌 Comment RIDING MOUNTAIN for our full guide on planning a trip to Riding Mountain National Park in Manitoba

THINGS TO DO IN RIDING MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK

🏘️ Stroll around the little town of Wasagaming

🌊 Walk along Clear Lake (and find the perfect skipping rocks!)

🦬 Drive to the Lake Audy Bison Enclosure

🌅 Walk the Ominik Marsh Trail at sunset

🪶 Visit the Oji-Cree Showcase & Market

🏛️ Explore the Parks Canada Visitor Centre

🍦 Choose from 50+ ice cream flavours at The Boardwalk on Clear Lake

WHERE TO EAT

🥐 Whitehouse Bakery & Restaurant for their famous cinnamon buns

🥗 Lakehouse for lunch

🍝 TR McKoy's Italian Restaurant for dinner

🍳 The Buffalo Bar at Elkhorn Resort for breakfast, lunch or dinner

WHERE TO STAY
📍 Elkhorn Resort , just outside Riding Mountain National Park

We stayed in a 2-bedroom chalet with a full kitchen, but the real winner with the boys was the activity centre with an indoor pool + waterslide

📌 SAVE this for your Manitoba road trip!

Give yourself at least 2 full days in Riding Mountain. If you’re visiting in summer, I’d add a third day to enjoy more hiking and time on Clear Lake.
