The Valley of the Ten Peaks is a stunning valley located in Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada. It's called that because, well, it's got ten really impressive peaks! The valley is home to Moraine Lake, which is like a picture-perfect postcard come to life. The peaks were originally named using numbers in the Stoney First Nations Language, but over time, some of them got renamed after important people. One cool thing is that the valley was part of the original homeland of the Nakoda tribe, who are closely related to the Assiniboine First Nation. So, not only is it a beautiful place, but it's also got some fascinating history.
