点评:The lovely 2 x 3.5 km hike that begins at the shores of Lake Louise and climbs steeply uphill—passing Mirror Lake and leading up to Lake Agnes—is best done at around 7-8 AM.
We started at 7:30 AM, hiking up with just a few other hikers around us. The air was cool, the forest was completely still, and it felt like we had the long climb all to ourselves.
On our way down 1.5 hours later, the trail was packed with people and horseback riders going up in single file. The air was warm and dusty, many were playing loud music, and the entire scene had transformed into a massive circus.
As you can see from the photos, Lake Louise, Mirror Lake, and Lake Agnes are all wonderfully photogenic in the morning.
At the top, it’s a delight to enjoy a cup of hot tea from the teahouse and eat your packed lunch by the shores of Lake Agnes before heading back down or continuing up to the Beehive.
By the way, anyone in decent shape can manage this hike, which follows a wide, well-maintained trail. But as mentioned, it’s a relatively steep climb up and a correspondingly steep descent back to Lake Louise.
翻译:这条 2 x 3.5 公里的迷人徒步路线从路易斯湖岸边开始,沿着陡峭的山坡向上攀爬——经过镜湖,到达阿格尼丝湖——最好在早上 7-8 点左右完成。
我们从早上 7:30 开始徒步上山,周围只有几个徒步旅行者。空气凉爽,森林一片寂静,感觉就像我们独自一人攀登了很长一段路。
1.5 小时后,在我们下山的路上,小路上挤满了人和骑马者,他们排成一列上山。空气温暖而尘土飞扬,许多人都在大声播放音乐,整个场景变成了一场大型马戏表演。
从照片中可以看出,路易斯湖、镜湖和阿格尼丝湖在早上都非常上镜。
在山顶,享受一杯来自茶馆的热茶,在阿格尼丝湖岸边吃盒装午餐,然后再下山或继续前往蜂巢,是一种享受。
顺便说一句,任何身体条件好的人都可以完成这次徒步旅行,因为它沿着一条宽阔且维护良好的小径。但正如前面提到的,上山的路比较陡峭,下山回到路易斯湖的路也比较陡峭。
