Moraine Lake– is a snow and glacially fed alpine lake in Banff National Park, 8.7 miles outside the village of Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada. It is situated in the Valley of the Ten Peaks, at an elevation of approximately 6,181 feet. The lake has a surface area of approximately 120 acres. The lake, being fed almost completely by snow-melt and glacial-melt, does not reach its crest until middle to late June. When it is full, it reflects a distinctive shade of azure blue. The unique colour is due to the refraction of the blue end of the spectrum of sunlight off the rock sediment deposited in the lake on a continual basis in summer by the surrounding glaciers.

The water from the lake, like other glacial lakes, is not potable without adequate treatment (both filtration and boiling). This is because the water contains silt and bacteria, despite its iconic pale blue appearance. That view of the mountains behind the lake in the 'Valley of the Ten Peaks' is known as the "Twenty Dollar View", as Moraine Lake was featured on the reverse side of the 1969 and 1979 issues of the Canadian twenty dollar bill. Having an appreciation for the "beauty in detail" of this lake is fundamental because the lake is completely created by nature and has not been dammed, drained, or otherwise altered by humans in any way.
