We are beyond excited to share that larch season has officially arrived in Alberta. It’s that magical time of year when Alberta’s alpine transforms into a sea of gold. Larch trees are coniferous trees that shed their needles in the fall, unlike their evergreen cousins. Before they do, their needles turn a brilliant golden-yellow, creating some of the most stunning autumn landscapes you’ll ever see. If you’ve had the opportunity to see the larches in their full autumn glory, you know what we’re talking about. If you’ve yet to experience their beauty, there’s still plenty of time to check them out before their brilliant, vibrant needles fall to the ground. Read on to discover 8 of the best family-friendly hikes around Alberta, perfect for hikers of all ages and abilities.
