Activities in Jasper

Canyon Icewalk

Your tour will take you in to the local Maligne River, frozen solid through the winter months, where you will be able to see remarkable natural ice structures. Guides will tell you all about the structures and other interesting local facts while ensuring you’re safety.

Heli-skiing

Heli-skiing is a very special experience, accessing vast regions of virgin powder snow all to yourself. Long experienced expert guides will take you to the best spots, putting your safety and your enjoyment first.

Snowshoeing

Snowshoeing is increasingly popular at ski areas all around the world, but Jasper goes one better than most!

Train Tour

Jasper has been around for a century now, first established in 1911 as a pioneering railway settlement named Fitzhugh. You can relive the early days with a historic train trip west to Harvey, returning by road along the scenic Yellowhead Highway, seeing amazing scenery and potentially local wildlife en route.

Winter Wildlife Discovery

Jasper is surrounded by National Park land which is rich in wildlife – from ospreys and eagles flying above, to big horn sheep and mountain goats on the slopres and down in the first moose, elks, deer and bears (although they’ll be fast asleep apart from at the very end of winter). The nature tour aims to show you some of these, or evidence they’ve been around, and also takes you down in the spectacular 50 metre deep Maligne River Canyon where you will see frozen waterfalls before concluding at scenic Medicine Lake.
