*** About Peyto Lake: Peyto Lake is renowned for its extraordinary color and scenic location in the Canadian Rockies, within Banff National Park, Alberta. Formed by glacial waters, the lake is fed by Peyto Glacier, contributing to its vibrant, almost unreal shade of blue. The lake’s color results from the large amounts of rock flour deposited in the waters during the summer, which reflect light to create its bright appearance. Rising prominently around the lake are peaks that form part of the Waputik Range, providing a stunning backdrop that captivates photographers, hikers, and nature enthusiasts from around the world. Visiting Peyto Lake offers an introspective look at the beauty and dynamic changes within the mountainous landscapes of Canada.
