点评:We visited Maligne Lake in May 2016 and did the Spirit Island cruise. This time, we popped over to see what, if anything, had changed and to grab some lunch.
Both times we have visited we have been blessed with wildlife (bears in 2016 and elk in July 2023).
We popped into the main café to find that it was very expensive. A basic sandwich had a cost of $17.50. So we gave it a miss and walked over to the Waffle Hut instead (see other review) and this was much better value.
We took some pictures of the area and had to make a quick dash to shelter when a thunderstorm passed through. Once it had cleared, we retook the photos as blue skies appeared. It was an afternoon of two halves.
The journey to the Lake is well worth it but I feel it has become over touristy (along with most of the Rockies now).
翻译:我们于 2016 年 5 月参观了玛琳湖,并进行了精神岛巡游。这一次,我们过来看看有什么变化(如果有的话),然后去吃午餐。
我们两次到访都有幸见到野生动物(2016 年看到熊,2023 年 7 月看到麋鹿)。
我们走进主要的咖啡馆,发现它非常昂贵。一个基本的三明治售价为 17.50 美元。所以我们错过了,而是步行去了华夫饼小屋(参见其他评论),这更有价值。
我们拍了一些该地区的照片,当雷暴经过时,我们不得不迅速冲向避难所。天气晴朗后,当蓝天出现时,我们重新拍摄了照片。这是一个分为两半的下午。
前往湖区的旅程非常值得,但我觉得它已经变得过度旅游(以及现在的落基山脉的大部分地区)。
