Vast, wild, and breathtakingly beautiful, Jasper National Park is nature at its most spectacular.
Covering over 4,200 square miles of pristine wilderness, it’s the largest national park in the Canadian Rockies.
Picture towering mountain peaks, turquoise lakes, ancient glaciers, and incredible wildlife encounters—all waiting to be explored. Whether you're an adrenaline-seeker or looking for a peaceful retreat in nature, Little America will ensure that you have an unforgettable adventure.
Stretching 144 miles between Jasper and Lake Louise, the Icefields Parkway is an absolute must. This breathtaking drive takes you past rugged mountain peaks, ancient glaciers, and sparkling blue lakes.
Make time to stop at Athabasca Glacier, part of the Columbia Icefield, where you can walk on the ice or take a tour to experience this frozen wonder up close.
One of the most photographed spots in Canada, Maligne Lake is famous for its crystal-clear waters and the stunning Spirit Island, a tiny, picture-perfect islet framed by dramatic peaks. Take a scenic boat cruise, hire a kayak, or hike along the shoreline to soak in the beauty of this magical place.
For an unforgettable hiking experience, explore Maligne Canyon, the deepest canyon in the Rockies, with limestone walls plunging 160 feet down. Follow the trail over six bridges that cross roaring waterfalls and dramatic rock formations.
Just 20 miles south of Jasper, Athabasca Falls is a sight to behold. Though not the tallest waterfall in the park, its sheer force and dramatic canyon setting make it one of the most impressive. Walk along the viewing platforms and feel the mist as the rushing waters crash through the rocks.
Jasper National Park is home to an incredible variety of wildlife. Keep an eye out for elk, moose, bighorn sheep, and black bears as you explore. If you're lucky, you may even spot a grizzly bear or a pack of wolves. The best times for wildlife spotting are early mornings and evenings, especially along Maligne Lake Road and Pyramid Lake Road.
For a bird’s-eye view of the park, hop on the Jasper SkyTram, which whisks you up 7,425 feet to the top of Whistlers Mountain. From here, you can hike to the summit for breathtaking 360-degree views of Jasper and the surrounding peaks.
