What to do in Lac des Arcs

Activities, attractions and tours

This is one of the busiest attractions in Canada’s Rocky Mountains, which is a highway pullover with a view of the country’s largest cement plant on the banks of Lac des Arcs. Just behind that, a strip mine wearing down Grotto Mountain. The EcoDome, in the middle of the photo, is 35m tall and 100m diameter, can be seen from the TransCanada Highway, houses materials used in the process of producing cement and reduces the spread of dust. #GreatOutdoors #OnTheRoad
