10.6 km return from base of Lake Louise, Alberta Canada. Amazing views which make you realise how small we are in this big world.
Easy walk, takes you to the back of the lake. Wheelchair friendly.
This relaxing coastal walk on Maria Island becomes a stunning one once you reach its destination: the Painted Cliffs.
What these cliffs lack in height they more than make up for with their amazing colours and swirling patterns. The patterns are caused by ground water percolating down through the sandstone and staining the rock. Wave action and sea spray have continued the erosion, resulting in magical honeycomb patterns, potholes and notches.
The cliffs are best approached at lower tide levels, to allow safe access to the rock platform beneath the cliffs. They are especially brilliant towards sunset. Bring your camera!
Relax on Hopground Beach. Swim, snorkel and explore the rockpools of the Maria Island Marine Reserve.
Bicycles may be ridden on the formed road sections but not on beaches or walking tracks.
This easy walk is sheltered from the coastal winds and provides a glimpse of Maria Island's wildlife and history. This walk is one of the best places to see the endangered forty-spotted pardalote. The walk takes you through open woodlands into tall eucalypt forest, and returns via ruins from the old cement works. The area near the reservoir is a good place for a picnic in the bush. Cycling is only permitted on Southern track due to safety.

Walk through the rainforest, partly along the Franklin River. National Park pass required.
Walk through the rainforest on a well maintained trail to the viewing platform.
