Revelstoke is about a two hour drive from my dad's home so it is fairly easy to drive out there for a day hike if you leave at an early hour.
Dad decided to take us on the Eva Lake Trail as it is not too challenging yet still offers gorgeous views of the surrounding mountains and of Eva Lake.
The Eva Lake Trail takes you through mountain meadowns, forest and across rock cliffs. The elevation gain is also fairly gradual with a few steep climbs, not too hard of a hike.
It took us about 2 - 2 1/2 hours to get to Eva Lake (I am slow). It was an ideal lunch spot, lots of big boulders to sit on and a beautiful lake to gaze upon.
After we finished walking around and soaking up the beauty of Eva Lake we started to make our way back down the trail with a brief detour to Miller Lake which is also a gem nestled away in the mountains.
I plan on revisiting Eva Lake this August, I can't wait!
