Description
Start at Chateau Lake Louise. Hike the shoreline until the sign to the Lake Agnes Trail. Follow this path up to Mirror Lake. After taking a look, use the right fork to continue to Lake Agnes. At lake Agnes you can take a break at the tea house before continuing on the Little Beehive Trail. Take this trail for a little over a quarter mile and take the small trail to the left (by a "Parks Canada" sign). Continue on the trail through the trees. You'll arrive at the bottom of switchbacks heading up to the peak. Once at the top, take a look around and then return the way you came.
