Banff National Park says this year is on track to be another record for visitation.
as officials turned away guests without reservations.“Probably five years ago, we drove in early in our RV and drove right back out again,” Cathy Poole recalled. “That was our Lake Louise experience.”
This year, it’s shuttle access only to Moraine Lake. And every day this summer, Parks Canada has sold out of its 2,800 tickets to Lake Louise and Moraine Lake.“Tuesday morning we were online at 8 o’clock,” Poole said, beaming as she stood alongside the crystal blue waters and pristine mountain views at Moraine Lake.Francois Masse, the superintendent of Banff National Park, said that “tickets come online at 8 o’clock in the morning two days ahead of the day.
Masse said the park has “around 5,000 or 6,000 people a day who are trying to drive into the lake without any plans, without any reservations and the parking lot is very small there.”Lake Louise summer travel reminders
