Photo is gorgeous.

What's the travel time like to get there from civilisation, is it a multiday hike?

Its just about an hour drive from Jasper, Alberta to Maligne Lake, which is where Spirit Island is. As someone mentioned, you need to take a lake cruise to get there. The island is a sacred place for the Stoney Nakoda people. Tourists are not allowed on the island.

Excellent. On a map it seems so remote I can't believe it's so accessible
