Jasper Quick Trip

Escape the urban bustle and make Jasper your home base for exploring Canada's extraordinary wilderness. As a mountain town, it's low-key and unpretentious with good food and drink; as a destination, it's an outdoor sports lover's playground, with hiking and golfing in summer and skiing and dog sledding in winter. If it's chilly, heat up at Miette Hot Springs in the National Park. Take the time to venture into Mount Robson Provincial Park, one of the oldest parks in British Columbia’s park system and the home of Mount Robson, the highest peak in the Canadian Rockies. There are plenty of outdoor activities to experience in the park, including caving, fishing, horseback riding, kayaking, camping and hiking. Even if you think you’re over mountains, Mount Robson is worth the visit.
