Make sure you have good snow tires or chains when you drive up in the winter but it's pretty accessible if you do! The trail is filled with awesome views the entire hike.

This was one of the most memorable experiences of my life. There were photographers lined up all around the lake. It's an amazing location to capture the northern lights.

This hike is stunning! We hiked through a starlit sky and watch sunrise from the top of Big Beehive. Worth it even in winter! There are some avalanche zones so be sure to check before you go.

This location is easy to access and amazing views await! We went in the winter and camped nearby and the whole experience was one I'll never forget.

This lake, although super busy, is a sure gem when visiting Banff.

I love this adventure.

This hike is challenging but the views are worth it! We arrived 2 days before the road closed in the fall, snagged a permit and loved this hike.

This area is breathtaking! Make sure to hike past the falls over to the canyon across the way and down to the bright blue lake at the bottom. We went early in the morning and there weren't any crowds.

This destination makes you feel like you're on another planet. The scene is simple and SO photogenic.

We didn't go all the way to the lake but the falls are incredible! We arrived just before sunrise and there was not another soul in sight. I've heard it gets pretty busy as the day goes on but the morning was perfect.

This is an awesome short hike to a breathtaking falls! Worth the stop.

We were so happy to find the road open to the hot springs! The hike up is beautiful and on a Sunday morning there were only a couple people there. Make sure to check out the hot springs farther up the trail for a more private option.

We drove out there last week (mid August) and the fog was rolling across the magical road, lined with overhanging trees, to the trailhead. This hike is such an enchanting experience! There were hiking sticks made by a local for you at the beginning and incredible views all the way through to the end. This is one of my top favorite hikes ever!

There's nothing in the world quite like exploring ice caves in Iceland! If you get the chance, take it. The tour group we went with had crampons and helmets for us too.

The views are gorgeous all along this hike and the fall colors are everywhere during that time of year!

This is such a popularly photographed place that we were excited to find a unique perspective! Super cool.

This place is so easy to access with incredible views and nice picnic areas around. We explored some of the little trails branching off from the main parking lot and found some unique views!

We loved this falls! We arrived early in the morning to this popular destination and had the place to ourselves. A perfect short hike.

This hike really is so busy during the day but we were pleasantly surprised to find it empty as the sun started to set. In August the walls of the canyon glowed orange as the sun went down and then the Milky Way came out!

Last March, at sunset, we photographed the icebergs that had washed up on the beach and it was an amazing experience!

This is a must see if you're in Iceland! You can see it from the parking lot but there's nothing like walking right up next to it. So powerful! We saw the northern lights faintly shine above these falls and I'll never forget it.

The colors during the fall season here are unmatched. We drove around and explored the turnouts along the way too! Such a beautiful experience.

We arrived early and hiked out just before sunrise. There was no one around until after the sunlight had flooded the valley floor below. Easily one of our favorite hikes in Yosemite!

If you're planning a trip to see the popular Antelope Canyon I'd highly recommend this canyon too. It's incredible with WAY less crowds.
