Mount Victoria

Mount Victoria, Mountain peak between Banff National Park and Yoho National Park, Canada.

Mount Victoria is a mountain peak located between Banff National Park and Yoho National Park, reaching an elevation of 3,464 meters. Glaciers on its northern slope generate the sound of ice breaking and falling during warmer months.

J. Norman Collie named the mountain in 1897 for Queen Victoria, the same year he made the first ascent with Arthur Michael, Charles Fay and Peter Sarbach. The Abbot Pass Hut, built in 1922, stood below the western buttress of Abbot Pass until its demolition in 2022.

The peak shapes the landscape around Lake Louise and draws photographers who capture how it looks across different seasons. Many visitors come specifically to experience the mountain under varying light and weather conditions.

Access to the summit follows the South Ridge route, which starts from either Lake Louise or Lake O'Hara and includes marked camping areas. The climbing routes demand preparation and proper equipment, especially during winter months.

Mount Victoria has two summits: the south peak reaches 3,464 metres, while the north peak stands at 3,388 metres. The mountain sits on the Continental Divide, which forms the interprovincial boundary here, and it rises on the western buttress of Abbot Pass, opposite Mount Lefroy.
