Joffre Lakes

This stunning destination is renowned for its trio of turquoise glacial lakes, each more beautiful than the last, set against a backdrop of towering peaks and lush forests.

About

Embark on an unforgettable journey to Joffre Lakes, a breathtaking natural wonder located just three hours north of Vancouver in British Columbia. The adventure begins with a well-marked trail that guides hikers through an enchanting landscape of old-growth forests, rushing streams, and alpine meadows. The first lake, located near the trailhead, offers a serene introduction with its mirror-like surface reflecting the surrounding mountains. As you ascend, the hike becomes more challenging but equally rewarding, with each step revealing more of the area's stunning beauty. Midway along the trail, you’ll encounter the second lake, which enchants visitors with its vibrant blue waters, perfect for a refreshing break and some memorable photos. Continuing the ascent, the trail leads to the pièce de résistance: the third and highest lake. Nestled beneath majestic glaciers, this final lake is a breathtaking sight, with its brilliant turquoise hue contrasting sharply with the rugged ice and rock surrounding it. Joffre Lakes Provincial Park offers an immersive nature experience that’s perfect for outdoor enthusiasts, photographers, and those seeking a serene escape.

Daytrip is a platform that connects you with local drivers who will transport you door-to-door, from one city to the next. We also give you the opportunity to explore sights/attractions along the way. We drive, you discover.

All Daytrip bookings are one way. If you need a return trip on a different date, simply book this as a separate one-way trip. For a same-day excursion, please request a custom trip. If you plan to stay more than a couple hours, we still recommend booking two one way trips so you're not paying a driver for waiting.

For the Daytrip Pool shared shuttle, we offer 3 ticket options when booking: Non-refundable, Flexible with cancellations 24-hours before departure, and Super-flexible with cancellations up to 15-minutes before departure. While you can cancel your booking for a full refund up to 24 hours in advance, changes requested under 36 hours are subject to driver availability, especially in the high season.
