Things to See and Do

From exploring the expansive Jasper National Park to savouring panoramic views from the Jasper SkyTram, there's no shortage of magnificent sights and thrilling activities in this Canadian gem. Here, we'll unveil some of the must-see attractions for a truly unforgettable holiday.

Soar Above the Mountains on the Jasper SkyTram

Experience Jasper from new heights aboard the Jasper SkyTram, the longest and highest guided aerial tramway in Canada. At the peak of Whistlers Mountain, you are greeted by unparalleled panoramas of the Canadian Rockies. Use this chance to embark on a family hike, take in an interpretive talk, or enjoy a meal with a view at the Summit Restaurant.

Discover the Wilderness of Jasper National Park

Unleash your family's adventurous spirit with a trip to Jasper National Park. With a rich variety of wildlife and myriad outdoor activities available, this park is a true natural paradise. Don't miss the Columbia Icefield, the powerful Athabasca Falls, and the serene Maligne Lake, all offering spectacular vistas and photo opportunities.

Marvel at the Wonders of Maligne Canyon

Maligne Canyon, one of the most spectacular gorges in the Canadian Rockies, is a must-see. Walk the interpretive trail, crossing several bridges with increasing views into the deep, narrow canyon. For more adventure, consider a guided ice walk in winter for a wholly different, other-worldly canyon experience.

Experience the Athabasca Falls

Although not very high by Canadian Rockies standards, Athabasca Falls is one of the most powerful waterfalls in the park. The surrounding area offers easy trails, picnic spaces, and stunning vistas, catering to all members of the family. The waterfall's natural beauty and power are particularly enthralling during the peak water runoff in spring and early summer.

Explore Miette Hot Springs

After a day filled with invigorating hikes and adventure, relaxing in the soothing Miette Hot Springs is a delightful treat. Nestled in Fiddle Valley, these are the hottest mineral springs in the Canadian Rockies. Unwind in the waters while enjoying the scenic mountainous backdrop.

Destination Essentials

The allure of Jasper's year-round beauty and its host of activities make it a top-notch destination regardless of the time of year. However, the balmy summer months from June to August serve as an optimal time for families to relish the outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, and wildlife spotting. This season boasts pleasant weather, allowing you to fully experience the splendid landscapes of Jasper National Park.

The winter brings with it a whole new set of opportunities, transforming Jasper into a snowy wonderland perfect for skiing, snowboarding and other winter sports. Alternatively, visiting during the off-peak seasons - spring and autumn - not only rewards you with less crowded attractions but also offers a significant reduction in accommodation rates, thereby enhancing the overall tranquillity and affordability of your holiday.
