Map of the Canoe rentals.

An easy 1 minute walk around the side of the main part of the Moraine Lake Lodge, you'll see it as you come into the lake. If there are no canoe's available you can ask how long, but you will have to wait in line for one. So, if you are there on a weekend or you're planning to spend all day at Moraine Lake then come back a little later. If you're only staying an hour or so, best to climb the Rockpile Trail (20 min.) or walk the Lake Trail (1 hour).

A nice break from the hustle and bustle of the Moraine Lake parking lot or the Rockpile. On a nice day you can see clear through to the bottom of the lake.
