Trends / Adventure

For travelers seeking all things adventure- and adrenalin-inducing pursuits — all with an epic view — Jasper, Canada, is your destination. From skiing and snowboarding to glacier hikes, ice climbing and snowshoeing, Jasper has it all.

On Foot

Head out on a group or private ice-climbing tour, scaling one of Jasper National Park’s frozen waterfalls. Grab a pitch, strap in and pick and climb to the top.

Snowshoeing is an exhilarating stretch of the legs and a killer workout. Head out on a Walks & Talks tour hitting the snow, road and anything in between. Opt for a snowshoeing trip with Sun Dog Tours December–March, learning about local ecology, history and the geology of Jasper National Park.

Take a hiking and ice walking tour through Maligne Canyon, experiencing towers of frozen ice and fossils. Explore ice caves, frozen waterfalls, deep canyons and unspoiled nature along a guided tour.

By Board

Skiers and snowboarders would be remiss to travel to Jasper and not get out on the mountainside. Head to Marmot Basin for a cross-country ski tour through backcountry and secluded wilderness or head out on the Canadian Rocky Mountain slopes of Jasper National Park. Enjoy a one-of-a-kind experience surrounded by natural beauty, breathtaking vistas and incredible ski and snowboarding runs.

By Animal

Sleigh rides aren’t just for jolly old Saint Nicholas. Take to the open snow with a team of bell-clad horses riding along Pyramid Lake. Sit back under a warm blanket taking in the scenery on the 40-minute ride.

Want more of a rush? Try a dogsledding tour through the Alpine Valley by day with Sun Dog, or climb more than 1,000 vertical feet with Cold Fire Creek dogsledding tours. Each excursion offers different experiences, from introductory lessons and information about the dogs to hands-on rides up Small River Valley for an overnight cabin stay.
