When the Girls’ Trip Leaves the Group Chat
It started with a “We should do a girls’ trip” text. Then came the “Where should we go?” messages, the Pinterest boards, and the flurry of emoji-filled reactions. Now? The flights are booked, the countdown is on, and Lake Louise is calling.
Think slow mornings with lattes in hand, an afternoon of painting with alpine views, and evenings that start with handcrafted cocktails and end with a toast to making this trip actually happen. Whether you’re in it for the ultimate unwind or ready for a weekend of indulgent dinners and adventure, this is the kind of getaway that deserves its own photo dump. And with our Alberta Residents Rate, there’s never been a better time to turn the group chat into reality.
Ease Into the Day: A Slow Pace in the Mountains
Begin your day with a wellness-inspired drink from The Guide’s Pantry— a Lavender London Fog for cozy vibes or a Turmeric & Ginger Latte for that extra glow. With warm drinks and zero stress, wander over to our favorite hole-in-the-wall bookstore, where stories of mountaineering legends, railway pioneers, and timeless fiction are waiting to be discovered. Because every great trip needs a little adventure—even in the pages of a good book.
From there, it’s all about the vibe check. Cozy up in The Living Room with a glass of wine from Lakeview Lounge, letting the pages of a new read (or a round of nostalgic board games) pass the time. Need a refresh? Take a dip in our indoor pool, then melt into the steam room and jacuzzi—because self-care is the itinerary.
Feeling creative? Pick up a paint kit from Concierge and capture Lake Louise on canvas—a keepsake to bring home, along with the group chat’s flood of photo memories. Or, for a moment of true stillness, embark on a restorative meditation walk along the lakeshore with one of our Mountain Adventure Guides. Deep breaths, snow-capped peaks, and a little soul-reset included.
If movement is your thing, flow it out in our yoga studio, where our talented instructors lead guided sessions designed to connect body, mind, and spirit. Because balance is key—even when the girls’ trip energy is at an all-time high.
Evenings of Indulgence & Warm Moments
As the sun dips behind the peaks, the energy shifts—it’s time to turn the group chat into real-life memories.
Start with a mixology class led by our Manager of Mixology, where you’ll shake, stir, and sip cocktails inspired by Lake Louise and our sister properties—Banff Springs, Jasper Park Lodge, and Chateau Whistler. Cheers to actually making this trip happen.
Then, settle in for an indulgent fondue dinner at Walliser Stube—because no girls’ trip is complete without cheese, wine, and chocolate. Share a family-style feast, sip on world-renowned vintages, and take a moment to admire our impressive wine library, home to over 500 vintage selections. Bonus: Our in-house sommelier is here to bring his craft to life.
Feeling competitive? Bingo Night is calling. Expect laughter, lighthearted rivalry, and maybe a victory dance (or two).
Finally, close out the night with a nightcap at Lakeview Lounge, watching the mountains fade into a star-studded sky. The only thing better than reminiscing about the day? Knowing tomorrow brings even more connection, relaxation, and adventure.
