Time Stands Still at Emerald Lake

If you are needing to get away from it all and escape the endless stream of emails, texts, status updates, tweets and WhatsApp messages then Emerald Lake is the perfect place!

Just a 20 minute drive off Highway 1 close to Field on the BC /Alberta border, Emerald Lake is hidden from the outside world by a cauldron of huge peaks.

Summer Day Visit

Emerald Lake is a great spot to visit for the day. You can hire a canoe or head off on one of many signed hiking trails. The most popular is a 5.5km circular hike around the lake which has less than 100m elevation gain.

Winter Lodge Stay

For those wanting to extend their time at this beautiful location you can always book a night or two at the Emerald Lake Lodge.

The rooms are super cosy and come with your own balcony and real fireplace! The good news is that the wood is delivered to your door so all you have to do is put down your glass of red and throw another log on the fire to keep it going! #ToughLife

The food served at the lodge is sensational with game meats being a particular strength. Also the buffet breakfast is something that should not be missed!

The Lake freezes in winter which makes for some fun cross country skiing, while the summer hiking trails become excellent snowshoe tracks.

With all that activity the Lodge offers an outdoor hot tub and fire pit to aid your recovery!

Emerald Lake is a magical destination any time of year – just make sure you remember your camera as you never know who you might meet!
