At the heart of the snowy mountains and frozen lakes of Jasper National Park, Jasper has the feel of a frontier town. It's compact enough to walk around easily, but large enough to offer an excellent selection of restaurants, bars, shops and activities. Thanks to the area’s extensive trail system, you can snowshoe, fat bike and cross-country ski around a large part of the town and surrounding areas.
Jasper is a designated Dark Sky Preserve, so is a great place to step out at night and admire the stars, wrapped up warm with a hot chocolate in hand. Visiting Jasper in winter, you often feel like this winter playground is reserved just for you. We recommend walking through the frozen waterfalls of Maligne Canyon and ice skating on Pyramid Lake.
