Banff National Park -- Hiking in Egypt
Is the Sphynx on your bucket list? We'll add a Scarab, a Mummy and a Pharaoh into the mix on this visual tour of Egypt.That's right -- Egypt! In Banff National Park!
The jaw-dropping pyramid-shaped peaks of Banff National Park's Egypt Lake area clearly inspired A.O. Wheeler during his 10+ year adventure to survey 970 km of the Canadian Continental Divide. They made such an impression that he named many of the peaks and lakes after the storied ancient civilization.
After thirty years of exploration... of the Canadian Rockies, writes Wheeler outstanding among them for scenic charm and interest may be classed the group of peaks, lakes and alpine meadows of the Egypt Lake area.
That's quite a statement considering all the other dramatic peaks that form the spine of the continent he was hired to survey. For decades that sentiment has been shared by hikers from around the world.
A day-long backpack hike leads to the Egypt Lake campground and shelter (yes, there is a rustic shelter here! From here, limitless day hikes abound.

Banff National Park - Egypt Lake 56km in 36 Hours
Have you even gone on an adventure and just haven't really wanted to be there? The weather, the bugs, the trail, something just doesn't feel right and you'd rather be at home. What do you do? Do you bail on the trip and go home? Well, if you're us you just cram your 3 day trip into 2 days so you can grab a burger and get home at 3 am but still get to see one of the many amazing areas Banff National Park has to offer. We don't fully experience the area on this adventure, we left many paths unexplored and sights unseen in our 56km of hiking in 36 hours. And, that's okay, it gives us an excellent reason to go back some day in the future.

Day 2 of a 4 day backpack on the Bow Valley Highline. Egypt/Shadow lake loop.
Twin Lakes to Gibbon pass to Shadow Lake and up Pharaoh Creek to Egypt Lake In Banff National Park. Timestamps:
06:28 Lower Twin lake
10:55 Gibbon Pass
18:27 Shadow Lake Lodge
24:06 Redearth Creek Warden Cabin
30:18 Pharaoh Creek Campground
37:13 Egypt Lake Campground
38:39 Egypt Lake Warden Cabin
Gibbon pass was nice with the usual assortment of flowers and such. Then it was the first day of the Shadow Lake/Egypt Lake loop. The first half of Pharaoh Creek was surprisingly not on the creek at all and was up in the trees with a bunch of climbing. The 2nd half after Pharaoh Creek Campground was alongside the creek though and more scenic. I enjoyed staying at Egypt Lake campground.
Gibbon pass is described very briefly in several places in the Canadian Rockies Trail Guide.
Pages 74,76, and 83.
Pharaoh Creek is also in the CRTG trail 29, page 66.

Day 3 of a 4 day backpack on the Bow Valley Highline. Egypt/Shadow lake loop.
Egypt Lake Campground up a side trail to Scarab and Mummy lakes. Continuing over Whistling pass to Shadow lakes all in Banff National Park. Timestamps:
02:24 Egypt Lake
03:54 Scarab Lake
04:34 Wicked waterfall between Scarab and Egypt Lakes
05:34 Mummy Lake
12:15 Whistling Pass
14:54 Haiduk Lake
20:22 Ball Pass Campground
26:58 Shadow Lake
27:23 Shadow Lake Campground
Packed up in Egypt lakes and decided to do a day hike with the full backpack on to start the day and then continue on. An older English gentleman joined me for the day hike. I enjoyed Scarab and Mummy Lakes. Particularly Scarab with it's outlet creek producing a great waterfall feeding into Egypt Lake.
After bidding my talkative partner adieu at Mummy lake it was over Whistling pass which wasn't that bad. Seems like it's a real grind from the other direction though. I enjoyed Haiduk lake and the views along the rest of the backpack. Mostly flat after Ball Pass Campground. Shadow lake was a great view too.
These trails are described in the Canadian Rockies Trail Guide:
Scarab and Mummy lakes in the Egypt Lakes Area Hikes page 70.
The rest is described under trail 33.
