The Famous Maligne Lake and Spirit Island

The Maligne Lake is the largest and deepest lake in the Canadian Rockies. The local Red Indians called it "The Lake of Evil". Translating this to French and that is how the name "Maligne Lake" is formed. The lake is located at 1,800 meter above sea level, 22 km in length and the deepest part can go to 97 meter deep.

In this lake, there is an island called 'Spirit Island". This island became famous because of a published photograph from a Photographer, where the photo was a shot of the Spirit Island and the Maligne Lake was the background. Today, most tourists will want to visit the same spot to have a photo shot of the Spirit Island. You can book a Maligne Lake Cruise Tour to experience the beauty of the Maligne Lake and get a Poster Shot of the Spirit Island:
