The Valley of the Ten Peaks is a breathtaking glaciated valley in Banff National Park, famous for its row of ten distinct peaks that rise dramatically above Moraine Lake. The view from the Rockpile Trail is one of the most photographed in Canada, especially in early summer when the lake is turquoise. Visitors can hike along the lakeshore or take in the scenery from the popular viewpoint. The valley offers a serene escape into pristine wilderness.
