Vermillion Lakes is one of the best spot's in Banff to catch a sunrise or sunset depending on the season. Although it's one of the most popular locations for photographers, there are so many different areas around the lakes that you'll never feel like it's too crowded. Mount Rundle can be photographed during anytime during the year, but be sure to check for ideal conditions to capture that perfect shot. Being so close to town, be sure to grab a bite to eat or a cold one afterwards!

I really wish I could have been at this spot for sunrise/sunset. It's a beautiful location with mountain views and crystal clear reflections in the lakes. Hopefully I will have the chance to revisit!

If you are in Banff, be sure to stop here, the views are fantastic and such a gem right in Banff! So calming and peaceful. There are places to stop along the road around the lakes and take pics, stop and smell the fresh air. Drive right to the end to appreciate the views all around!

we went to brunch at juniper inn, nearby... on our way back to town, we saw a sign for vermillion lakes. it wasn’t too crowded, since it was midweek, but we got a nice walk in to work off some serious brunch. the larch were changing color, so it was beautiful!
