Lake Louise railway station in Lake Louise, Alberta, Canada, is a railway station used by the Royal Canadian Pacific train service. The building now houses a restaurant and also serves as a stop for the Rocky Mountaineer. The station is located on Canadian Pacific main line, Lower Lake Louise, near the Chateau Lake Louise.

The station was originally built for the Canadian Pacific Railway. The station was declared a heritage railway station by the federal government in 1991. Starting in 1909 it was the first of six mountain stations built by the Canadian Pacific in a rustic log building design, consistent with how the railway marketed the region as a wilderness tourist destination.
