Bow Lake Viewpoint | Alberta Photo Spot
Share this Page
Bow Lake Viewpoint is one of the most scenic spots along the Icefields Parkway, located in the Canadian Rockies of Alberta. This roadside pull-off offers panoramic views of the crystalline Bow Lake, backed by towering, snow-capped mountains and verdant forests. The location is particularly photogenic at sunrise and sunset, when the light paints the landscape in rich, warm hues. During the early morning, you might even capture the lake’s calm waters reflecting the majestic peaks. This tranquil location is also a great spot for wildlife photography as it’s not uncommon to see wildlife like elk and bears in the vicinity. The viewpoint is accessible all year round, but the summer months provide the most hospitable weather for visiting photographers.
