In our number one spot for Canada's most incredible views is Moraine Lake. The vistas here come with an alpine-forested shoreline and the picture-perfect peaks of the Rocky Mountains in Banff National Park.

Its incredible hue, which can appear anything from sapphire to turquoise depending upon the time of day, is the result of light bouncing off fine particles of rock flour picked up by the glacier run-off that feeds the lake. In our opinion, it's utterly stunning.
