Lake Minnewanka by Motor Boat
The strength of the engine throttle in your hand is a powerful feeling as you guide your boat amongst the rocky coves of Lake Minnewanka. The water’s edge is too high to tell now, but deep below the surface lies a resort village submerged underwater in 1912. Your motorboat would have been considered a wonder in 1889 when the first steam-powered boat tour cruised the lake. A few things haven’t changed through – the mountains that seem to rise directly from the water, the gentle waves rolling beneath the boat and the cool breeze in your hair.
