Visitor center
The Jasper National Park Icefield Information Centre and Glacier Gallery is a hub for visitors to learn about the glacial mechanics of the Columbia Icefield. It offers a patio with stunning glacier views, trails, tours, a shop, eatery, and cafe. The center also serves as a visitor center where tours can be arranged, including the popular Icefield Adventure that takes visitors onto the glacier via specially designed Ice Explorers.
If your budget allows, I highly recommend booking the newly launched 2025 glacier tour, Ice Odyssey. There are several reasons for this: 1. If it’s your first time visiting the glacier — and very likely your only visit — this tour offers a much deeper experience. You’ll be able to stay near the glacier for almost two hours, and since the group size is smaller, you’ll have more opportunities to interact with the guide. 2. Because this tour takes you to a more remote part of the glacier, the scenery you’ll see is completely different. The ice surface is much cleaner, and you’ll have better conditions for photography in terms of timing, angles, and locations compared to the standard tours. 3. If you’re lucky, like I was, and you’re the only one who booked that time slot, you’ll get to enjoy an unforgettable private glacier experience. The driver and guide will be dedicated entirely to you, and you can even sit in the front passenger seat, which is a completely different perspective. Of course, don’t forget to try the pure glacier water — but don’t drink too much!

It was first time I was on a glacier, was amazing to see something as beautiful and magnificent at the same time. But sad to see how global warming is impacting all. The ride was good, a 1.3 million Mercedes benz Explorer

You should be prepared to lose phone coverage over 200km and be aware to have enough fuel as the nearest gas station was charging above average around 1$ extra. Other than that enjoy the road as it is amazing the crystal phyerouzi color are wonderful Get a jacket as the glacier area are colder

Jasper National Park: A Timeless Masterpiece ​Jasper National Park isn't just a destination; it's a profound experience that keeps calling me back. I've been here more than seven times, and each visit offers a completely unique and unforgettable impression. ​The highlight for me is the Icefields Parkway, arguably the most scenic drive in the world. This isn't just a road—it's a journey through a living, breathing landscape of ancient glaciers, turquoise lakes, and towering peaks. The grandeur of the Athabasca Glacier, the serene beauty of Maligne Lake, and the majestic wildlife sightings are simply breathtaking. ​What makes Jasper so special is its dynamic nature. A summer trip reveals lush, vibrant landscapes and the full force of its waterfalls, while a winter visit transforms the park into a serene, snow-covered wonderland. The light changes, the seasons shift, and with each return, a new detail or a different view captures my heart. Whether it's the thrill of spotting a wild elk or simply standing in awe of the towering mountains, Jasper reminds me of the sheer power and beauty of nature. ​This place is more than just a beautiful park; it’s a source of inspiration and renewal. If you're looking for a once-in-a-lifetime journey that will stay with you forever, Jasper National Park is it. I promise you, it's worth every visit.

Information centre building and experience are stunning. The centre has a great gift shop, gallery, washrooms restaurant, lodge and Starbucks. It is the start of the journey by taking the bus to the glacier. It is a life time experience that should not be missed.

Tally ho, Jerry! We just found out our gentle ride is retiring soon — and we feel lucky to have met him. He’s calm, steady, and clearly well-loved. Wishing him the most peaceful retirement ahead. 🐴💛 The whole Tally-Ho experience was lovely — friendly staff, beautiful route, and well-cared-for horses. It can get a bit busy at peak times, but the charm and care truly shine through. Highly recommended for a relaxing way to explore Victoria!

The Columbia Icefield Skywalk offers a unique and thrilling experience for visitors. This 1km walkway leads to a glass-floor observation platform that overlooks a 280m drop, providing a bird's eye view of the stunning Sunwapta Valley. Adjacent to the highway, the Columbia Icefield Centre is an activity complex where visitors can learn about glacial mechanics, book tours of the glacier via Ice Explorer vehicles, and explore natural history exhibits.
We visited on a picture Aug 21st. A perfect day. Definitely worth the time and effort to travel there. Maybe one of the top wonders in Canada. Pictures cannot do justice in capturing the prestine beauty and amazing views. Our tour bus driver was very informative, while our tickets were for approximately 1 hour, but you can stay longer and catch another one of the regular return buses. The Glass bridge is a special treat and is kept very clean to maximize the views. There are a couple of restaurants with decent food and would suggest you visit the ice fields and Athabasca river, Cross the street from the main building. That part is a short drive and you can walk up to the glacier. All in all, we had a wonderful experience and worth seeing again.
Andy A — Google review
The Columbia Icefield Skywalk has exactly the same concept as the famous Grand Canyon Skywalk — a glass-floored walkway extending over a canyon. However, this one is much smaller, roughly about one-third the size of the Grand Canyon version. Even though it’s on a smaller scale, it’s extremely well maintained and very clean, which makes it a pleasant experience overall. I wouldn’t describe it as very thrilling or scary, especially if you’ve been to the Grand Canyon Skywalk before. That said, it’s still worth visiting as part of the Columbia Icefield Glacier Adventure package, especially if you’re also doing the Glacier tour on the same day. It’s a nice way to round out the experience. We went on a Monday evening, which turned out to be perfect — there were very few people, and we practically had the entire walkway to ourselves. It gave us plenty of time to stroll slowly, enjoy the views, and take photos without feeling rushed. This was a huge contrast to my past experience at the Grand Canyon Skywalk, which was very crowded and hectic. Ticket tip: If you buy tickets for the Skywalk alone, it’s around CAD $50 per person. However, I recommend purchasing a Pursuit Pass or a bundle that includes other attractions, which you can easily find online. If you pre-book online, you can usually get around 20% off, making it a much better deal.

The whole experience was great! Both our drivers on the bus and ice explorer were very social, giving us cool facts, and cracking jokes. On the glacier itself was really cool but the zone we were allowed to go on was pretty small with a lot of people. There was great places to take pictures and even a Canadian flag. The skywalk was my favourite, the little 10 minute walk to the actual skywalk was cool with little facts about animals and plants that are native. The skywalk itself was great but the glass was a little dirty and muddy so it wasn’t the greatest for pictures. Also there were so many people that it was hard to get a good picture with people walking in your way all the time. Besides that it was amazing with the views and views of waterfall down below. It’s a little scary at first but after you’ll feel great about doing it. Highly recommend!
Maxim G — Google review
What a spot! The Skywalk gave us absolutely stunning views — the glass-floor platform hanging over the valley is one of those things you’ll remember. We walked the interpretive trail, took in the rugged landscape, and yes, walking out onto that suspended walkway 918 feet (280 m) above the valley floor was both thrilling and calming. We weren’t actually on the glacier itself, but we still felt like we were right in the heart of the wild. The view of the ice-capped slopes and the surrounding peaks framed by the valley is something you’ll struggle to capture in a photo. All in all: definitely worth doing, especially if you’re visiting the area and want something memorable without a full-blown hike. Just go with your eyes open: pick a less-crowded time if you can, and don’t expect it to replace a full glacier walk.

A remarkable experience! Walk on the glacier, and learn about its critical importance and history. Our "Ice Explorer" driver was very knowledgeable, kind and humorous. It was windy, cold and rainy the day we were there, but we still had a fantastic time. Dress for freezing temperatures and wear waterproof boots if you have them. After the ice walk on the glacier, we got onto a bus that took us on an 8 minute ride out to the "Skywalk" where we walked out onto a see-through platform that hangs way out over the canyon. I think from beginning to end, our experience was about 2 to 2 1/2 hours. I would consider this a "must do" when visiting Lake Louise, Banff, or Jasper. They do have RV parking, and an overflow parking lot across the street if the main parking lots get full. I believe they even have overnight RV parking available for a small fee. Enjoy your adventure. I know we will remember ours for our lifetime.

Visited in May 2025. All of the staff I encountered throughout were fantastic and knowledgeable. Especially the young lady who had a little stall with info of all the wildlife (sorry, can't remember your name). The views on offer are incredible. Also visited the glacier which cool. (It's quite slippery - wish I chose more suitable footwear!)

We went with Brewster, which was amazing. The actual skywalk was really neat, but a believe a bit overrated. The views are cool, but there even better ones where you can just pull off the motorway. A touristy and busy place mostly meant for photos, but really neat nonetheless.

Athabasca Glacier, located in Jasper National Park, is a renowned and receding glacier that attracts numerous visitors. It is part of the Columbia Icefield, an expansive ice mass situated on an elevated plateau near some of Jasper's highest peaks. The glacier offers guided tours and hiking opportunities for visitors to experience its stunning beauty up close. Despite being one of the world's most accessible glaciers, it is sadly retreating due to global warming.
I had a lot of fun here riding the bus and walking on the glacier. I really enjoyed it glad I was also well dressed with boots and a light down jacket. It was cold. But loved the experience.
Alexander Y — Google review
We didn't go into the Glacier on this trip but we plan to next time. We enjoyed wandering through the Discovery Centre and then going abroad the highway to hike to the Toe of the Athabasca Glacier. You can see the people on the Glacier who are on the Glacier tour. There is a fence at the end of the trail but everyone was pushing it down and stepping over to go all the way out to the water. So sad that no one follows the signs. I stopped at the fence. It was beautiful up there. The Skywalk is part of the tour. We also ate lunch in their cafe. The portions were big, so we shared. The parking lot was packed and there were people everywhere. It was crowded but worth visiting.

I've visited twice—once in August and again in early October—and the seasonal change offers a completely different experience. This October, the trail was already covered in fluffy, early snow, transforming the area into an all-white, magical kingdom. Absolutely amazing!

Awe-Inspiring Athabasca Glacier🫶🏻😍 I recently had the privilege of visiting the Athabasca Glacier in Jasper National Park, and it was an unforgettable experience! The glacier's majestic beauty and sheer scale left me in awe🤩 The scenery was breathtaking, with towering ice formations, sparkling blue crevasses, and stunning mountain vistas. I felt like I was walking on a frozen wonderland🫰🏽👌🏽😃

I would highly recommend it to everyone who's ever wanted to visit a glacier. Please visit this once in your lifetime, as the glacier is receding and might not be there in the next 50 years at all. The experience of taking the special red bus is worth it within itself.

Gorgeous glacier! Book a tour that hikes up NOT the bus things that drive there! That company is causing the glaciers to melt faster! Hiking up is way better and I even got to drink glacier water!

Athabasca Glacier is an unforgettable sight. Standing near the ice and feeling the cold mountain air is surreal. The guided tours are worth it to learn how massive and powerful the glacier really is. It’s one of those places that makes you appreciate nature’s scale and beauty.

Columbia Icefield Glacier Adventure

4.6
(3305)
The Columbia Icefield Glacier Adventure offers a breathtaking experience in the Canadian Rocky Mountains. Visitors can explore the Athabasca Glacier, witnessing its majestic movement and carving through mountains. A ride on the Brewster Ice Explorer provides an up-close encounter with the glacier, creating unforgettable memories. The Columbia Icefield Glacier Discovery Centre serves as a perfect starting point for this adventure, offering stunning views of the glaciers.
Visiting the Rocky Mountains wouldn’t feel complete without stepping onto an actual glacier and experiencing the pure, icy water up close. We joined the Columbia Icefield Glacier Adventure, and it was a memorable experience. We actually went twice — on our first day, the weather was terrible, with strong winds and heavy rain that made it almost impossible to stand steady, so we had to cut the visit short. Huge thanks to Pursuit, the tour company, for being so understanding and letting us return the next day for free. The second day was much better, and we could really enjoy walking on the glacier and taking in the views. This activity is fascinating, but to fully appreciate it, I recommend learning about how glaciers and icefields form, otherwise it’s just like standing on a big pile of ice with no context. One thing I really liked about Pursuit is that they provide a mobile app with an audio guide. You can listen in real time while you’re there, or download it to review later at home — a great way to deepen your understanding and keep the experience meaningful.

An amazing icefield exploration with Logan aboard the Ice Explorer. He was engaging, informative, and had a great sense of humor—making the experience fun and memorable. We even got to cheer for his belated birthday, which added a personal touch to the trip. The landscape was absolutely surreal, and walking on the glacier truly felt like a once-in-a-lifetime experience. It was extremely cold, so I’d strongly recommend dressing warmly and being prepared for icy conditions. The rest of the crew were also friendly, entertaining, and showed great camaraderie as a team. However, there was one incident worth mentioning: a fellow tour member slipped on the ice and had difficulty getting up due to his age. Although three crew members were nearby, they appeared distracted in conversation and didn’t respond when I called out for help. It took nearly 10 minutes as he struggled to get up before our very own tour guide from Trafalgar ran over to assist when he witnessed the incident. While the overall experience was excellent, I hope the team can be more attentive to guest safety on the glacier in future tours. That said, it was still a remarkable adventure I won’t forget.

The main center is gorgeous, well run operation, but as soon as you get onto the buses or the ice climber specialized vehicles you sort of see they spent everything on the main visitor center. The buses are all old, the ice climbers feel like they've been running since 1980s - they cost $1.5m/ea and they have 21 of them, but no "guest services" style functions out in the field (near the glacier or at the sky bridge) - drinking fountain? Bathroom? Nope, nada. It would be easy to have a port o john setup in these spots and obviously the employees are going somewhere (especially the sky bridge folks) The 8min bus ride to the ice crawler and then the 8min ride on the crawler to the glacier were very very lightly guided - felt more like a casual engagement rather than a super tight professional operation. It's cool, do it, but if you look for things like hospitality practices you'll spot some gaps.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Breathtaking Experience at the Icefield Glacier! This place is an absolute must-visit. From the moment we arrived, every staff member was super friendly and helpful. The washrooms were surprisingly clean (which is always a big plus when you’re traveling!), and the wait time was smooth — nothing too long or stressful. The souvenir shops are really well set up with lots of unique items — definitely worth checking out. A big shout-out to our driver Andy, who made the whole experience extra special. He was funny, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone was having a great time. This was my second visit, and it honestly felt like a whole new experience. The first time I went, it was freezing cold, so I couldn’t fully enjoy everything — but this time, I finally got to try the glacier water and even did the famous “glacier facial.” Totally worth it! Standing on a 150-meter-deep glacier, surrounded by nature that feels endless, really puts things into perspective. It’s peaceful, humbling, and just beautiful beyond words. Parking is easy with plenty of space available, and the entire setup is organized perfectly for visitors. If you’re visiting Jasper, don’t skip the Icefield Glacier — it’s one of those rare experiences that makes you feel small in the best way possible. 🌨️❄️

🤩 This was one of the best experiences I have ever had. Ride In the ice Explorer to glacier is amazing, some interesting facts were shared by the guides while in the ride. You get enough time to experience , take pictures and if lucky can drink some fresh glacier water if you have an empty bottle. Make sure to have your winter boots and jackets.

If you want to join this adventure tour, you have to prepare for it. First , you need to book this on line. Also, you need to be well prepare for the cold . We went in August , still felt very cold and windy . You have to wear suitable shoes to walk on ice, it's very slippery . The view is great and a wonderful experience to walk on the glacier ( in condition that you are well prepared) . We were there at the end of August, last week of summer holiday, so many visitors and needed to lineup for everything .

Tangle Creek Falls, situated along the Icefields Parkway between Banff and Jasper, is a must-see multi-tiered waterfall just north of the Columbia Icefield. Often overlooked due to its proximity to the highway, it offers a convenient stop with a parking lot for visitors to capture remarkable photographs.
Beautiful roadside stop! Tangle Creek Falls is easy to access and totally worth it. The waterfall is stunning, and you can get right up close with just a little hike. Great spot for quick photos and a break on the Icefields Parkway. Surely a hidden jem as not many people stop at this falls but trust me you will love it

Currently, the water still flows dynamically down the rocky ledges, but the cooler temperatures have started to freeze the edges, creating dramatic, hanging icicles that frame and blend with the rushing water. This creates a stunning contrast: the clear flow tumbles against a delicate, crystalline sculpture of ice. As one of the most convenient stops on the Icefields Parkway, it is absolutely worth a brief pause. You can easily pull into the small parking lot located across the road. Toilets are also available in the parking area, making it a perfect spot for a quick break and a memorable photo opportunity.

A lovely quick stop on the way to the Skywalk! This picturesque waterfall is easily accessible right off the road and makes for a great photo op. While not massive, the falls are stunning and worth a brief visit to enjoy the soothing sound of the water. There's also a hike to Wilcox Pass nearby. Be cautious when crossing the pedestrian lines on Highway 93 to reach the falls.

How can you not give this place 5 stars? You literally step out of your car and BAM—waterfall in your face. No hiking, no sweating, no "are we there yet?" Just pure, majestic nature doing its thing right off the highway like it’s trying to win a beauty pageant for roadside attractions. Pulled over to stretch my legs and ended up having a full-blown photo shoot with this multi-tiered waterfall. It’s like Mother Nature knew road trippers needed a scenic slap in the face to stay awake. If you’re the kind of adventurer who likes your views high-effort-free, this one's your spirit stop.

A nice little stop before heading to the Skywalk. It’s right off the road, so it’s an easy detour. The waterfall isn’t huge, but it’s really pretty and worth a quick visit. Great spot for a photo or just to enjoy the sound of the water for a bit.

Waterfall
Nature & Parks
Athabasca Falls, located on the upper Athabasca River just west of the Icefields Parkway, is a remarkable waterfall known for its powerful force and stunning beauty. While not the tallest in the Canadian Rockies at 23 meters, it impresses with its large volume of glacial water forced through a narrow gorge. The surrounding pine forests and mountains provide an iconic Canadian backdrop that can be admired from convenient viewpoints along the trail and a footbridge across the canyon.
These falls were fantastic. The thunderous sound reminds you of the power of water and of nature. Seeing the rainbow as the water passes over the falls was an added bonus! Truly a must for anyone visiting Jasper National Park.

Athabasca Falls is absolutely breathtaking! The waterfalls are powerful and mesmerizing, surrounded by incredible mountain scenery. Walking through the footpaths is a stunning experience — every turn offers something new to see and appreciate. Even though the area was affected by the fires, its beauty and strength still shine through. It’s a must-see stop in Jasper — peaceful, scenic, and a true reminder of nature’s resilience. 🌿💧We visited October 2025 and it’s less crowded dress accordingly. Weather conditions change drastically.

With a history dating back almost 100 years, this destination offers diverse terrain for skiing and snowboarding enthusiasts. The resort features 91 runs serviced by seven lifts, including high-speed quads, ensuring an enjoyable experience for all visitors. Marmot Basin's season typically runs from early November to early May, providing ample time to enjoy its stunning views and snow-covered slopes.
Don't be fooled by the fire devastated forest on the way to resort. The resort withstand! It's beautiful! A variety of runs and the quality of terrain made me speechless. I was making runs after runs after runs without crazy lines on lifts. Mind you, there were dozens of ski schools that day from all over the world. The price of the lift tickets is more than reasonable. Plenty of fresh powder in April; where else can you find it?! I liked the way they arranged the parking lots. Doesn't matter which lot you take, you get direct access to a run that leads you to the resort. No shuttles, no walking with the gear! 👍

Marmot Basin is one of the best ski resorts in Alberta. The runs are well-groomed, varied, and perfect for all levels, whether you’re a beginner or more advanced. The lift system is efficient, and I rarely find myself waiting long to get back up the mountain. The scenery is breathtaking, with mountain views that are worth the trip alone. Staff are friendly and helpful, and the vibe is welcoming without feeling overcrowded. It’s a must-visit spot if you’re in Jasper, and hands down one of my favorite places to ski.

This is a great hill with solid parking set up. Seems to be never over crowded. Easy in and out for drinks or food. Lots of great terrain. Worth a little hike here and there for sure

What an amazing ski resort! Great lifts, lots of run varieties, lots of open space, not crowded, and easy parking. Amazing for beginner/intermediate skiiers because you can even get down from the highest lift points using blue or green runs!

Such an awesome place for beginners to even professionals! Close to where i live (still a few hours away but its one of the closest best ski resorts) and close to jasper as well. Snow is always good and double black diamonds are super fun as well. Highly recommend for all as well as the Park Junkies! Would add more photos of my action but cant find them

Fun mountain, wasn't a lot of snow yet this year, but still plenty to ride. More of a blue square to black diamond difficulty, there are harder runs, just waiting on snow. Would definitely go back when there is a thicker base and whole mountain availability. No lines when I went on christmas wknd. I think I had to wait behind 1 set of people once, in the 2 days I was there, other than that, straight to lift and up. How the sun goes, they'll be alot more light in late January and February; starts setting on slopes around 2 pm over Christmas time.

I personally LOVE Marmot. The people are so amazing, the mountain is great and both challenging and relaxing depending on the run you choose. I will say the drop off on the Knob Chair is dangerous and has to be built up, I bailed as it's a rapid drop from the chair and I watched the next 6 groups getting off the lift bail as well... But otherwise, Marmot is one of the best in Alberta in my opinion. I am definitely going back.

Incredible ski resort, but my God is the chalet expensive. Evreything else about it is Incredible, there's also a lot of paths through the trees that were fun. And the ski school instructor (we were forced beacause it was a school trip) she was incredibly nice.

Went here for a walk in dine in experience and it was absolutely amazing. The food was absolutely perfect and the old fashioned... was the best old fashioned I have ever had, and my favorite was the keg. The atmosphere was perfect, nice and relaxing and with the best view you could ask for. Our server was extremely bubbly and friendly making the whole experience an absolute joy. Would definitely visit again. Thank you Ari and the Altitude team for making it an unforgettable experience.

I appreciate the fact that they have all these nice amenities near the natural wonders. It can be tricky, bringing all these many tourists to places that are both awe inspiring, and fragile. The Altitude Restaurant has a full buffet that can pretty much satisfy most appetites. It has plenty of cold salads, hot entrees, desserts and beverages. The views outside the windows were spectacular. Most of the help was new, but eager, and friendly. Would recommend to others visiting the area.

I recommend to have a reservation book for breakfast and dinner! We had our dinner here on June 10 and were served by Taylor and Geraldine. Both are sweet and awesome. It was our honey moon, and when Geraldine knew about it she made our desert on the house. Isn't that sweet 😊 Taylor was super friendly host, hyping us for matchy matchy outfits and drinks. We really indeed have a good time here.

Food was just ok to fill our hungry tummies after the great adventure. There are variety of options for food like salad, sandwiches, pasta, meat and desserts. I have to rave about the view which was more than amazing!! My husband and I sat outside and enjoyed the marvelous view while we dined.

Worst food I had in AB. Seafood chowder tastes like vomit, kids pasta is salty, Caesar salad too much lemon juice makes it too sour. Beef is not the worst, and Alberta lamb is by default medium rare but you can’t even cut it with knife, too much sinew. Waitress is sassy. This level of food and service is not fine dining for sure. If you stay at the lodge I don’t recommend you dine in here.

We stayed one night in the Glacier View lodge and had both dinner and breakfast in the Altitude restaurant. Both experiences were wonderful! The food was delicious and service was excellent! The views and atmosphere were fantastic as well. Highly recommend!

Be advised: Altitude Restaurant prioritize tour groups over walk-in customers until after 2:30 pm most days, so don’t rely on this restaurant for lunch. It costs $49pp. The only alternatives are their cafe (Chalet) or Starbucks downstairs. This three-storey building caters to hundreds of people at any given time, so it is always very crowded. If I was heading towards Jasper, I’d go up to the first-floor balcony to take a selfie. Enjoy the view for a moment and then drive to Sunwapta Falls Rocky Mountain Lodge restaurant (30 minutes down the road). It’s a charming little spot with an open fire, decent food and good service.

Breakfast restaurant
Becker's Gourmet Restaurant is a hidden gem located just five minutes south of Jasper, along the picturesque Icefields Parkway. This charming eatery boasts a classic mountain ambiance, featuring warm wood and stone decor that creates an inviting atmosphere. Diners are treated to breathtaking views of Mount Kerkeslin and the Athabasca River, making every meal feel like a special occasion.
My son was pleased with his Elk Steak. So were my husband and sister with their Salmon. Our Nay liked her Minestrone soup. My red bean soup was delicious, especially with the multi-colored crunches; however, I wish it’s not as thick. It was filling so I didn’t need my Lobster Cake appetizers. There’s lobster taste in it and the slight crunch was good but its flavor was dominated by other ingredients. Mr. Zach is a likable conversationalist😊. He recommended Pyramid Lake where there is a walking bridge to an island for a better view of the Pyramid mountain! I like the light stained wood ceilings and walls of this restaurant. The chalets look inviting to stay at🤩. The view is as beautiful. They also have Adirondack chairs on the grass along the side facing the river and mountains.

The hiker salad with chicken was absolutely delicious. The dressing was really good and the chicken was a huge portion! I was looking to fuel my body with something healthy and delicious and this meal was perfect! My mother in law got the salmon crusted with pistachios and said it was delicious. Our waitress was fantastic, she had brown hair but I am forgetting her name! Thank you for the great service throughout our meal.

Appetizers were amazing and so were the drinks but it took a long time for us to get our mains courses. And when we did our steaks were flavorless and way over cooked. We asked for medium rare and they were hardly even pink. We could have sent them back to have them fixed but the waitress never returned and then we had to ask another waiter for a dessert menu and our bill. We complained about the $50 dollar meals that we never ate to him and then our waitress came with the desserts and said they were on the house. We left there hungry after paying $217 .

Delicious! Stayed at the Cabins for two nights and decided to dine in the restaurant on the Friday evening so we could relax after a long drive. We made reservations in advance, just in case. Our meals were devine! Sorry, there are no photos of the mains because we hungrily dove right in. My meal was elk steak, and they happily exchanged the sides to what was offered with the ribeye meal as I thought it would be better for my limited potato dinner. It blended so well with the elk that I was so happy I made the substitution. My friend enjoyed the bison bolognese and reported it was delicious as well. We decided to forego appetizers and had dessert instead. My dessert was the chocolate creme brule and was the perfect ending for my elk steak dinner. My friend had the chocolate tower cake, which was huge and equally delicious. Service was great - friendly and attentive without being bothersome. All in all, and excellent experience! Prices are a bit high and reflective of the quality fare - worth the price in my opinion.

We dined here Saturday evening. We had a beautiful view by the window. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Our server was attentive and provided excellent service. We ordered the bison bolognese, and the elk steak.

We were visiting from out of country in August and we were recommended this restaurant from a local in town that worked at the visitor center .

There is a lot of great choices on the menu ( lots of great gluten free options ) . I will be recommending this for all my friends . This place was the best service we received in Canada .thank you for exceeding our expections

For day 2, we recommend exploring the southwest side side of town. Start the day off with Maligne Canyon, then wind down and take it easy by the time you get to Jasper SkyTram. All together, your day would be filled with about 9 hours of non-stop fun.

Hiking Trails
Maligne Canyon, located in Jasper National Park, is a stunning 50-meter limestone canyon known for its waterfalls and captivating scenery. Hiking along the Maligne River offers picturesque views and photo opportunities, especially starting at the 6th bridge. Despite its name meaning 'malignant' or 'wicked,' the only wicked thing about this place is the awe-inspiring beauty it offers.
If you’re in Jasper, this is stop number one. There’s a parking area where you can start exploring downstream. Along with stunning nature, you’ll find bridges over scenic canyons, beautiful nooks, and breathtaking waterfalls below. You can do a short loop and return to your car, or you can go all the way down, though it will take longer. We were even lucky enough to spot some deer greeting us right at the parking lot.
Cirrus S — Google review
The tour bus stopped at a lookout. You can see the canyon and the entire surrounding area. This was the best spot to see all of the damage caused by the wildfires. It was incredible (and a little sad) to see what has become of this area. So much of the area looked like scorched earth, yet it is still majestic and beautiful. What was very interesting is that this fire was driven by high winds (65+ mph) and many of the burnt trees feel in the same direction, almost like dominos). There were also some small patches that were left unscathed, and how does that even happen?! Such beautiful country. Worth the trip!

Maligne Canyon is one of the most spectacular natural attractions in Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada. Carved over thousands of years by the Maligne River, this stunning limestone gorge plunges to depths of over 50 meters (160 feet), making it the deepest canyon in the park. Visitors can explore the canyon via a well-maintained trail system that crosses six bridges, each offering unique viewpoints of roaring waterfalls, swirling whirlpools, and steep canyon walls. The first and second bridges provide the most dramatic views, where the narrow canyon walls close in around the rushing water below. In summer, the area is vibrant with lush greenery and wildflowers, while in winter, Maligne Canyon transforms into a magical world of frozen waterfalls and icy caverns, perfect for guided ice walks. The canyon’s geology and hydrology are fascinating too—some of the river’s water mysteriously disappears underground and resurfaces miles away at Medicine Lake. Whether you're a casual walker or an avid adventurer, Maligne Canyon is a must-visit destination that showcases the raw beauty and power of nature in the Canadian Rockies.

Before heading to Maligne Lake, a visit to the canyon is generally organized. It's good that you can visit it pretty much anytime, even with a cloudy weather and it doesn't degrade the experience. Walking around is easy.

Absolutely breathtaking place. I loved every moment at the canyon, nature is truly amazing. Hiking from bridge 1 to 5 is a steep downhill, you have to climb up to get back to where you started. Wear shoes with good grip and treat yourself at the tea house by the parking lot.

I hiked the trail at Maligne Canyon in Jasper, and I couldn’t help but drop my jaw at the sheer beauty of it. Gorgeous, stunning, and downright marvellous! The canyon felt like nature's masterpiece, revealing a cross-section of Earth's ecological evolution in the most dramatic way. Every twist and turn of the trail seemed to unveil something new and breathtaking. It’s not just a sight to see—it’s an experience, one that immerses you in the power and history of nature. Maligne Canyon is a must-visit, a place that leaves you both humbled and awestruck by the forces that have shaped our planet over millions of years.

Spectacular trail that follows a canyon in Jasper National Park. Waterfalls all along and bridges that cross and allow amazing views of the water below. The rock erosion creates patterns and tones that pictures don't quite convey An absolute must for waterfall fans such as us!

The Jasper Planetarium & dark sky telescope tours offer an unforgettable experience for stargazers. The Dark Sky Festival celebrates Jasper's Dark Sky Preserve designation with two weeks of programs, featuring talks by notable figures like Bill Nye and George Takei, as well as musical performances under the stars. Visitors can enjoy stargazing at Lake Annette and attend workshops on night sky photography.
The planetarium tour was fantastic. The presentation had great information and the visuals were nice. Would love to go back and do the telescope experience if we had time. The drive up was beautiful and the lodge is lovely.
Cassandra P — Google review
We were genuinely lucky as we had clear skies and about 2 hours of Northern Lights on show, so overall an incredible night. We paid for the extra package which included a walk into a darker area to be privately talked through what we could see. The giant scientific grade telescopes and the talks by the staff we so interesting and you could really feel the passion of the staff who were able to answer every question we had. However, I can appreciate if you only purchase the basic package of just the dome show, this would be disappointing as it's just a projector inside a tent, in a hotel car park, but the full package is well worth the money. There is a rainy day guarantee which is good, if you don't see stars, you have 2 years to return to try again, which is good even if you're a tourist on holiday.
Rebecca D — Google review
This is a temporary built setup with a very very small dome and folding chairs and recliners inside. It’s on a parking lot of the Fairmont hotel. The hotel itself has a great view and walking area, that we enjoyed more than the show itself. The projection is blurry and the whole story is not well thought. It keeps jumping from one point to another without a logical sequence. Skippable.

The highlight of my summer so far! The tour is fantastic and the staff have so much knowledge it blew my mind. We arrived on a cloudy night but still learned and saw so much in the displays and talks, they have a nice cosy set up with a fire, too! We managed to go back the following evening for a complimentary look through the telescopes on a clearer night which was a brucey bonus. Kudos to everyone at the planetarium for putting on such a wonderful show, especially Gerran! And Beth was great with all the organizing!! I am recommending to everyone who visits Jasper, come clear or cloudy skies!

My partner and I went to the Jasper planetarium and did the dark sky package tour on July 27th! INCREDIBLE RAINY DAY POLICY! We were originally booked for July 26th but the weather was gray, muggy, and cloudy. One simple phone call and the Planetarium had no issue rescheduling us for any day of our choosing. They even let us think about it for a day to see how the weather would be before picking a new tour date. Absolutely beautiful clear night amidst a week of clouds and rain. HIGHLY RECOMMEND GOING FOR THE DARK SKY PACKAGE, we got to walk privately with a small group around Lake Beauvart and see constellations, satellites, and even a glimpse of Saturn (looks like a big star, you can't see the rings through the binoculars on this particular day) through the crystal clear binoculars they provide. Super nice lodge and surrounding area, very fancy. Everything was ran well and smooth. You can tell the people working here love what they do and love teaching/showing others the night sky. Shoutout to Lyn our tour guide.

Log cabins
Nestled along the picturesque Athabasca River in Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada, Pine Bungalows Resort offers a down-to-earth and tranquil mountain escape. The family-run resort features a variety of rustic cabins and cozy rooms with balconies, catering to families, couples, and independent travelers. With five different cabin styles on its 11-acre property, guests can enjoy modern amenities such as kitchens, private bathrooms, heating, and electricity while being surrounded by breathtaking views of the mountains.
We stayed in the 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom chalet this past weekend, and I can't say enough good things about the Pine Bungalows. The chalet was immaculate, beautifully furnished and the beds are very comfortable. The linens were of high quality too. The chalet is well stocked for 10 people with lots of utensils, dinnerware, pots, pans and wine glasses. The staff and management were friendly and professional, and helped make our stay fantastic. They pay attention to details and are very accommodating with any requests. The grounds are beautiful too and they are walking distance to downtown, but at the same time the location is peaceful and quiet. 24 people in our group and we had a great time playing corn hole and sitting around the campfire visiting with our family. I can't wait to return and would definitely recommend Pine Bungalows in Jasper. I give it 10/10.

Lovely cosy cabins, great location and very peaceful. All the staff we spoke to were very welcoming and helpful. We stayed in a riverfront cabin, which had an indoor gas fire, as well as an outdoor fire pit which was really nice at night. They provided one bag of fire wood a day free of charge, which was a bonus! It is a quick drive from Jasper centre and easily accessible from the highway. We had our own parking space with no additional cost. We had the best time staying here for 3 nights and made our time in Jasper even more special! The guest newspaper was a nice touch and it was filled with a lot of helpful information regarding the accommodation, as well as Jasper and local areas. We would 100% stay here again in the future!

We have spent 4 nights in pine bungalows and we wish we could have stayed much more. The environment is perfect, you feel like you are in the middle of the forest and not somewhere man made. We stayed at a cabin with a river view, we sat every morning and evening in front of our cabin and saw a gorgeous squirrel looking for food, so cute! During the nights there is not artificial light outside so you can stargaze if the sky is clear, having free wood for the fire pit was a super plus we were not counting on when we got there. The cabin is beautiful, clean, new, and has everything you could need. We got our own food and cooked there every evening, you have everything you need there. The gas fireplace was lovely and again unexpected so huge plus for us. Nice bathroom with good water pressure in the shower. We didn't eat in the restaurant so we cannot say if good or bad, however we bought some nice Jasper beer from them. The employees are polite and lovely. We cannot say enough about this place, my husband and I sat every night outside and praised the place and how fortunate we were to be able to enjoy it. Jasper and Pine bungalows have been the best part of our first trip to the Rockies and Canada and we will be coming back in future 100%

2 night girls trip, perfect location in the river front cabin. Beautiful view while relaxing outside reading by the fire. Having a kitchen was great for making some quick meals and snacks. I recommend bringing a hatchet to make some extra kindling for fire and bring sticks for cooking hotdogs or smores as those aren't provided. Overall loved our time there, its a great place to relax and unwind and escape the hustle and bustle. Can't wait to return.

Oh my goodness, Pine Bungalow Resort has forever ruined my childhood memories of musty, cramped vacation cabins. Our cabin was (a) spotless, (b) up-to- date, (c) roomy and (d) equipped with a comfortable bed and lovely bedding. The bathroom had heated floors. We were provided dry firewood for our little fire pit, which was a great touch. The resort is a little outside the town, which we appreciated for the space and the quiet, but you do have to drive in to take advantage of Jasper. There is a nice trail along the river. All staff were friendly, accommodating and efficient. We will absolutely come back.

We really enjoyed our stay at Pine Bungalows Jasper. Great place to unwind. There are options of cabins on the river, around parklands and or plan b rooms at the lodge located main reception and Kumama restaurant. We chose upstairs in the lodge which was great close to everything. You can sit by outside open fires, go for walk along beautiful river and look at stunning mountain views. There are many photos on Pine Bungalows website. The rooms are cabin style but comfortable. The big highlight was the Kumama restaurant onsite at reception area open for breakfast and dinner. The food was amazing and we ate there both nights. The Cauliflower dish was favorite and we had that both nights. Important to book this restaurant ahead. Jasper township is close by car and very quiet compared to Banff.

We booked this because it was outside of town a bit so we wanted less hustle and bustle vs a hotel in town. This is an older lodge but it has been refreshed and actually the room looked like new. They manage fire pits in a couple of locations which was a very nice touch! The staff, Paul and Beth, were very friendly and helpful. We will definitely book there again the next time we visit Jasper!

We were pleasantly surprised by the lovely cabin, main lodge with restaurant and service offered here. Wow! We rented a cabin with a bedroom and another bed in the main area. We had chairs and a picnic table at our private campfire. The hotel delivered wood and matches every day. Lovely evening walk by the river. The restaurant’s food, service and ambience lured us to eat there for one dinner and two breakfasts. What a great property!

Pyramid Lake

Lake
Pyramid Lake is a picturesque destination with a stunning mountainous backdrop, offering a serene beach, picnic spots, and a charming small island. As you glide across the calm waters of the lake, you may encounter wildlife such as loons, muskrats, and moose along the shore. The reflective surface creates an illusion of floating above the clouds amidst the breathtaking Rocky Mountains. Visitors can access the lake for activities like canoeing from various points including Pyramid Beach and other smaller access areas.
Pyramid Lake is close to Jasper which makes it super easy to get to. The lake is beautiful and peaceful; maybe not as breathtaking as some of the more famous lakes in Alberta, but still worth a visit if you are in the area. It’s usually pretty quiet with not too many tourists around. Parking is limited. There are a few trails nearby, but they’re not the most scenic, the main draw here is just relaxing by the lake.

They have 4 beaches, as you enter you will have turns for beach 1, 2, 3, and then main beach with a parking lot. There is a narrow trail for you to walk around and spectacular Mountain View’s. Pyramid Mountain is very prominent and on a clear day you will have a spectacular view.

Such a peaceful and stunning spot in Jasper! The view of Pyramid Mountain reflecting on the lake is absolutely magical, especially during sunrise or sunset. You can rent kayaks, paddle boards, or just enjoy a calm walk across the bridge to the island. The water is crystal clear, and the whole area feels so relaxing and romantic. Perfect place to unwind, take photos, and enjoy nature’s beauty. Definitely a must-visit in Jasper!

Pyramid Lake is a must-visit if you're anywhere near Jasper. The views of Pyramid Mountain reflecting off the lake are absolutely stunning, especially in the early morning or around sunset. There's a cool little pedestrian bridge that takes you to Pyramid Island, which makes for great photos and a peaceful walk. Lots of spots to chill by the water, rent a canoe, or even have a picnic. We didn’t rent a boat this time but saw lots of people paddling around, and it looked super relaxing. Easy access with parking nearby—no crazy hike involved, just pure nature vibes. One of those places that feels peaceful but also iconic. Definitely worth the stop!

The hostel features a communal kitchen, lounge with fireplace, outdoor BBQ area, and games room. It is within walking distance to shops, cafes, restaurants like the popular Jasper Brewing Company and the Friends of Jasper gift shop. Unlike other hostels in the national park operated by Hostelling International, this hostel is run by locals.
Really great hostel experience. Check in was very smooth and didn't take long. You get a towel and bed sheet upon check in. Stayed in one of the 8 bed bunk beds. There is a privacy curtain for each bunk. We had an in-room shower and toilet and no issues there. It was very clean. Also the bunks came with a personal small fan. No issues with the room being too hot. The location is phenomenal and there is paid parking right next to the hostel during the day and free street parking up the street. There is a large kitchen downstairs. Only thing I would have like to have had was a personal locker in the room. Overall, this was a great hostel experience if you are the type of traveler that enjoys being in a hostel. You can't beat the price for being in downtown Jasper. I would definitely stay here again if in Jasper!

I stayed at this property for two days, booking directly through their website. Overall, my experience was exceptional and truly enjoyable. I encountered no issues during my stay — the service was excellent, and the staff were incredibly accommodating. A special thanks to their team members, who were especially helpful throughout. I will definitely be returning and highly recommend this place to anyone planning a visit to Jasper. They have ample of spots for car, clean rooms and washrooms which were most important. Even their location is very close enough to Patricia Lake, Pyramid Lake and beautiful patio restaurants in their neighbourhood.

I accidentally booked a private room with a maximum capacity of three, for four. It didn't seem like an issue until after check-in, where I made it clear to the worker that we had four guests. He waited until after we were totally checked in and paid to knock on our door to inform us we were required to book a separate single bed in a shared dorm. It was pretty frustrating he didn't mention this during the check-in process, where as mentioned, I made it entirely clear there were four of us. I ended up reluctantly booking a single bed in a shared dorm. I took my towel and blanket and set it on the bed I was assigned. It wasn't until midnight I went back, only to learn my bed had been stolen - the room was entirely full. Of course this wasn't an issue as we had already planned to sleep four in the three person room, but it was definitely the icing on the cake of the frustration. No staff were available to sort this problem out - no late night phone number to call, and had we not booked a private room, I would have had to sleep in the car. TLDR: Be wary of people stealing your bed here, and be mindful that the staff take their jobs way too seriously only to further inconvenience you for no reason.

I had a car accident on my way to this hostel, so obviously I couldn’t get there and spend the night, I called to ask for a reimbursement but they wouldn’t do it because “that’s the policies of the house”. I found it unfair. The place has no empathy at all. Be careful when you book a night in this place, plan your accidents as well just in case of loosing more money for nothing!

The dorm room was good and I appreciated the curtains. Kitchen was good. I did however think that the mixed bathrooms were strange - particularly for showering. I am all for progressiveness, but as a younger female I felt strange being in the shower room with men over 60.

Anyone who has ever stayed in a dormitory, it's like this here. Not much different. For those traveling solo or in groups with a budget in mind, this is the right place. For couples who are not budget-conscious, you can probably find another room. The special thing is that their kitchen is fully equipped, large and suitable for cooking. Laundry machine also have, CAD 3.00 per washing mchine & CAD3.00 Per dryer. The location is in the middle of Jasper town, very strategic for mobile tourists. There is a hostel parking lot but it is very limited (1st come 1st serve), other free parking is a bit far away.

Bear's Paw Bakery is a cozy spot in Jasper, offering a warm atmosphere with wood paneling and serving up delicious house-baked pastries, breakfast items, and coffee. It's a local favorite and popular among visitors as well. The bakery offers an array of freshly baked goods including muffins, cookies, cakes, artisanal breads, sandwiches, and wraps. While it has limited seating inside, it's worth stopping by for a delightful breakfast or lunch experience.
Bear’s Paw Bakery is hands down one of my favorite spots in Jasper. I have been coming for years and it’s definitely a family favourite. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted with the comforting aroma of freshly baked goods and rich coffee — it’s the kind of place that immediately feels warm and welcoming. The location is perfect, right in town and easy to find whether you’re a local or just passing through on your Rockies adventure. The space itself has a cozy, inviting atmosphere that makes it ideal for grabbing a morning coffee, a quick bite, or even just relaxing for a few minutes with something sweet. It’s clear that everything is made fresh daily — from the flaky croissants and buttery scones to the hearty breakfast sandwiches and mouthwatering desserts. The coffee is excellent every time — rich, smooth, and brewed just right. Whether you’re a fan of a classic drip, espresso, or something more indulgent, they’ve got you covered. The staff are always upbeat, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. Even during busy hours, they’re efficient and kind, creating a positive experience every single time. It’s rare to find a place that nails great food, coffee, service, and atmosphere all in one — but Bear’s Paw Bakery does just that. If you’re in Jasper, this place is a must-visit. I can’t recommend it enough!

We came on a Friday morning at around 10am. There was a line of people, but the line goes pretty fast. They have a microwave inside to heat up pastries if you choose. We saw a sign to order online and pick up at their outside window, so we did that. We got a cinnamon bun, a maple pecan Danish, and a garlic cheese stick (no picture because we finished before taking a picture). All of them were very good, not too sweet. The Danish texture is less flaky and feels more like a biscuit? But still good. Not a lot of maple on it, just a touch of sweetness.

This bakery is a Jasper gem. The baked goods are delicious with a variety of coffees and teas. I did feel a bit rushed as there were so many customers and the staff was trying to move people along, I couldn’t see the selection behind other people until someone moved and then I didn’t have a chance to order it. Despite this, excellent baked goods, lovely little shop.

This review is based on a single visit. This is apparently a very popular bakery in Jasper. While we were there, we learned that this bakery has loyal local customers, visitors returning for more treats, and first timers (like us) who had heard of the deliciousness created here. At noon on a summer Sunday, the bakery was full of customers. All the tables and counter space were occupied with visitors, sipping their drinks and having pastries. The line was almost out the door. We don't know if this is normal, but for us this is how it was. There were plenty of young and friendly staff to handle the workload. Everyone was hustling about, filling orders and making sure that the customers were taken care of well. We did not wait in line long before we placed our orders. We got a couple of pastries and regular drip coffees. The pastries were OK. We suspected the pastries would have been better right out of the oven, but that's more of a timing thing than a quality thing. The medium and dark coffees we had were excellent. Excellent. We neglected to take note of the name of the coffee we had. However, we believe they were local to the area. The seating area inside the bakery was full. There were small tables and counter space for customers. There's also some seating outside, but not very much. For the bakery, that's a great problem to have, a bakery full of customers. For customers, however, it could be a problem if you wanted to have a place to sit and enjoy the pastries. We took ours out to the parking lot across the street and eight off the bed of our truck. We're used to it, and to be honest, we preferred it. The parking lot across the street from the bakery is more than enough to handle the customers that visit. If not, there's street parking available. However, everything is "paid parking" so keep that in mind.

We tried a few things here but the clear and undeniable winner is their STICKY CINNAMON BUN. You'd think you'd miss the creamy frosting of a cinnamon role, but this beast when warm is just a gooey caramelly masterpiece. The other pastries we tried leaned towards dry but no issue with the sticky bun. VERY popular spot in town so expect to wait in line 15 minutes or so, or I gathered you could order online for pickup outside quicker.

Gets very busy in the mornings because it’s a very small space, but this is a nostalgic place for my family and I so we don’t mind! Used to live here about 2 decades ago, and the baked goods are a bit dry (depending on what you get), but generally are as good as I remember. the variety is great, and the service is very efficient! Only unfortunate thing was that their drinks just taste like milk. We had a chai and London fog, and both just tasted like steamed milk with a very very faint flavour. The addition of the chocolate on top is always nice though!

We went to this café right after breakfast, around 10 to 10:30 in the morning. Unfortunately, by the time we got there most of the breakfast sandwiches were already sold out. They only had one left, which we ordered. It was actually really good — fresh bread, good flavor, and you could tell their bread and pastries are baked in-house. We also tried a pastry that was rolled in caramel, and it was delicious. The café had a microwave too, so you could warm up your pastry if you wanted, which I thought was a nice touch. I especially liked the caramel and cinnamon combo, and overall, all the baked goods we tried were fresh and tasty. The only real disappointment was the muffin. There were four of us, and none of us liked it. It was very dense, kind of dry, and just didn’t have good flavor. I’m not sure if it was an off recipe or maybe just not fresh, but it was definitely the weakest item we tried. The coffee was fine, nothing special, but totally acceptable. The café itself had a nice atmosphere, and the baristas were great. They were attentive and friendly. The only thing that felt off was the cashier, who seemed to be rushing through orders a bit too much. It made the interaction feel a little uncomfortable. Overall though, still a good spot.

I recently visited Bear Paw Café in Jasper Downtown, and it was such a happy experience! The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and they offer a wonderful variety of food and coffee. Everything we tried was fresh and delicious. Highly recommend trying their pizza pretzels and croissants—both were absolutely amazing! With great options, friendly vibes, and quality food, this café is definitely a must-visit in Jasper.

Visitor center
Association / Organization
Jasper Park Information Centre is a historic cobblestone-and-timber building that serves as the visitor center for Jasper National Park. Originally built in 1914 as the park administration building, it now offers maps, travel tips, and information on trails, backcountry hiking, wildlife viewing, and interpretive programs. Designed by architect A.M. Calderon, this National Historic Site is a prime example of rustic Canadian architecture. Visitors can also explore the gift shop for souvenirs.
The Jasper Information Centre is an absolute treasure and the perfect starting point for any adventure in Jasper National Park. Housed in a beautifully preserved heritage building right in the heart of town, the centre offers not only practical information but a warm, welcoming atmosphere that immediately makes you feel connected to the spirit of the Rockies. The staff here are phenomenal—knowledgeable, friendly, and truly passionate about the area. Whether you’re planning a multi-day hike, looking for hidden gem viewpoints, or just trying to figure out where to spot wildlife, they go above and beyond to help you tailor your visit. Their insider tips made our trip unforgettable. Beyond the helpful advice, the building itself is worth a visit. The rustic stone-and-log architecture is iconic, and there's a real sense of history in its walls. There are informative displays about the park’s geology, wildlife, and history, which make it a great little stop even on a rainy day. We left with detailed maps, new hiking ideas, and a deeper appreciation for Jasper. This place sets the tone for everything that makes the park so special—nature, heritage, and warm Canadian hospitality. Don’t miss it—your Jasper experience will be so much better if you start here.

Small visitor center in the middle of town in a lovely historic building. I wish there was more to it, especially considering the significance of the park, but the town is small. There aren't any displays or information to speak of, but the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Also, come back at night and there are some neat illuminated sections. Jasper the bear is right around the corner. Too bad the gift shop was not open when we went, since it looked interesting and better to support Parks Canada. No free parking.

As a local taxi service provider in Jasper, I’ve had the pleasure of regularly picking up and dropping off guests at Forest Park Hotel. From what I’ve seen, the hotel maintains a high standard of hospitality and cleanliness. The staff are always courteous, organized, and professional, which makes our job easier and creates a smooth experience for visitors. Guests often share positive feedback with us about their stay—mentioning the comfort of the rooms, the helpful service, and the beautiful surroundings. The location is also convenient for transportation, with easy access and a well-managed front entrance. Forest Park Hotel is clearly committed to guest satisfaction, and it shows. We’re proud to serve their guests and look forward to continuing our partnership!

Compared to Banff town, this place feels much quieter. There are fewer busy shopping streets and more residential areas surrounded by mountains, creating a peaceful atmosphere. The restaurants are a bit pricey, but the environment is very pleasant and a good place to enjoy dinner after coming down from the mountains. Just keep in mind that most shops close around 9pm

Ascend to the top of Whistlers Mountain on the Jasper SkyTram, the highest and longest aerial tramway in the Canadian Rockies. As you soar to an elevation of 2,263 meters (7,425 feet), breathtaking panoramas unfold before you. From craggy snow-capped peaks to pristine lakes like Pyramid and Patricia, the views are simply awe-inspiring.
We had this on our list when we got to Jasper. It was worth the cost. The views are amazing up there. You can also see the devastation from last year's fire. We opted to hike to the summit. My husband, who is 79, stopped not far from where we started but told me to go on since I was in better shape. I was past the false summit when I just decided to turn around. It was worth it to climb if you can do it but don't go past your limits if you are older. If I was younger, I would've pushed on through since I was so close but I had more hiking to do that day so that was enough for me. We ate in the Summit Cafe and shared the brisket sandwich. It was delicious!! The views from the café are spectacular.

Absolutely worth the money. It stops operating around 2nd November 2025 and back again in March. Beautiful views from the top. We were there late October so the snow made it more difficult to hike to the summit but views below submit great as well. We had a bite to eat at the restaurant.

The Whistler Mountain Tram was a highlight of my trip to Jasper. Spectacular views of the entire region including the surrounding mountains, rivers, lakes and the town of Jasper. The tram ride is smooth and at a good pace - not too fast but not poking along either. Staff are knowledgeable, very friendly and helpful. The restaurant at the upper level is superb. Great food with impressive views. Don't miss it. The dirt hiking trail to the top is not difficult for those in good health and physical shape. But seniors and those with limitations should stick to the decks and platform areas. Bring warm clothing for the mornings and evenings but late mornings through the afternoon can be warm.

We were glad to experience the Jasper SkyTram on a clear day—it made all the difference! I recommend buying lift tickets in advance since they are timed, though the wait wasn’t too long. The base area was clean and well-kept, and the ride up was enjoyable, with Hannah sharing interesting details about the region. At the top, the panoramic views were absolutely spectacular and far exceeded our expectations. I actually enjoyed this more than the SkyTram in Banff. Without a doubt, it was one of the highlights of our trip.

An essential part of the Jasper Experience!. What a rush from starting slow out of the station to picking up some speed on the line and ascending that mountain in no time - and it's steep. The little boardwalk at the top is perfect for just relaxing but there are also many trails to explore and how easy after being plopped right onto the peak of Whistlers Mountain. LOVE THIS!

Chicken wings and the charcuterie boards are fantastic. I love getting a drink and a snack while curling up by the fireplace with read, with a view of the mountains. Pricey, but you get what you pay for. Service is usually very attentive. Can’t beat the atmosphere.

Quite unfortunate compared to the old days. Used to live here about 2 decades ago and their food has gone quite downhill. With regard to the Great Hall, their menu has become generic instead of being unique to the park area, and their food quality and service are not very good (to say the least). For example, my poke bowl was essentially just a mayo and rice bowl. The rice was very cold and dry, and the other toppings seemed plentiful at first glance but it was all very small pieces that were drenched in mayo. The fish and chips were appalling - it was essentially 2 small pieces of fish skin with no flavour, and 6 wedges for $33. The fries with the burger seemed store bought. The service was incredibly slow and almost non-existent. What we thought would be a 1.5 hour lunch turned into a 3 hour meal because no one was coming to serve us, and it took over 45 minutes for our dishes to come out. The dining area and outdoor patio was almost empty, despite it being peak lunch hours. The fact that the bill was $140+ for this lack of food quality and service was definitely the worst thing. All in all, it’s a shame to see what this place has come to, as it used to be a bustling restaurant with unique flavours of the Rockies.

I had an amazing dining experience. The chef Tomas, Benjamin(Hayden), Tal did an outstanding job -every dish was perfectly prepared, fresh, and full of flavor. You can really tell how much effort and passion goes into their cooking. The server Carra was equally impressive — so friendly, attentive, and always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, which made the meal even more enjoyable. Truly a wonderful experience from start to finish — I’d love to come back again soon and try more of their dishes!

Dining as a group, we were all treated to a gastronomic delight that we won't soon forget. The menu at The Emerald Lounge Restaurant offers a diverse range of options to cater to various tastes, and every dish we ordered was an absolute hit. The highlight for me was the perfectly cooked steak, prepared exactly as we requested. It was a testament to the chef's skill and dedication to culinary excellence. The staff at The Emerald Lounge Restaurant deserve a special mention. Their warm and attentive service added to the overall enjoyment of our meal. They were not only knowledgeable about the menu but also eager to accommodate our requests, ensuring that our dining experience was nothing short of extraordinary. The ambiance of the restaurant is both inviting and charming. The patio, which overlooks the picturesque lake, provided a breathtaking backdrop to our evening. Dining with the tranquil waters of the lake in view added an element of serenity and beauty to our meal. And let's not forget about dessert! The pastries we indulged in were nothing short of divine. Each bite was a heavenly combination of flavors and textures, leaving our taste buds dancing with delight. It was the perfect sweet ending to our culinary adventure. In conclusion, The Emerald Lounge Restaurant in Fairmont Hotel Jasper is a culinary gem that should not be missed during your visit to Jasper. Whether you're dining with a group or seeking a romantic dinner for two, this restaurant offers an unforgettable experience. The delectable cuisine, gracious staff, lovely ambiance, and lakefront views make it a must-visit destination for food enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.

We wanted to experience the Jasper Park Lodge and enjoy the view from the hotel. So we came for lunch as we can’t afford to stay. Lol.

And we had to ask to be moved to the window so we could even see the view (and it was not busy).

Jasper Pizza Place, known as JPP by locals, is a casual dining spot offering wood-fired thick-crust pizzas, wings, pasta, and other mains. The restaurant's rooftop patio is a popular feature among visitors. One of their standout dishes is the Canadian poutine with an Indian twist called Rogan Josh, featuring crispy shoestring fries, mozzarella cheese, squeaky curds, and cilantro.
Very nice, friendly staff. I enjoyed the pizza, had the thin version with a nice fluffy crust. The pizza was tasty, topping wise it could have been a bit more generous, other than that just a really good pizza, nice place with a great beer selection. When it gets crowded, it can be a bit loud. Overall, I would recommend coming here when staying in Jasper.

Tried 3 different types of Woodfired pizzas but they were all average. We get much better and yummier wood fired pizzas in California so may be not the same . Their patio looked great for such a small place like Jasper but the blinds were down because of the rain , when we went . And yes , they didn’t attend us for a long time until we asked them to take the order , they apologized for that however. Seeing the great reviews ,we thought our experience would be the same , or is it hit or miss ?

After a long day of hiking we decided to do takeout pizza. A popular place in town it's always busy during peak dinner time. We tried their traditional baked pizza *the Sicilian* ham, sausage, yellow hot peppers and cheese. *The Athabasca* gourmet thin crust consists of black olives, artichokes and cheese. Both pizzas were delicious! No complains!

Haven’t been here in years, and it seems like there may be new owners because the food felt different this time around. The pizza itself was quality, and I really liked that they offered two options: pan or wood oven. The fries were tasty and seasoned just right. I also appreciated the great selection of dips to go along with the meal. ($2.50) per dip. The roof top patio was lovely! One fun surprise was their awesome t-shirts definitely a cool touch that stood out. The staff were very nice and accommodating, which made the experience pleasant overall.

While the beef stew's temperature could be improved, the overall experience at Maligne Canyon Wilderness Kitchen Restaurant is delightful, making it an ideal spot to unwind and refuel after an adventurous hike.

Our yogurt fruit granola parfait was very good. So was a their brisket sandwich. Their menu is limited. The indoor dining area has high ceilings, cozy, comfortable and varying types of chairs and set-ups. Outdoor on the deck are picnic tables with umbrellas and the sound of flowing water.

Came here for lunch after exploring the canyon and got seated on the patio, beautiful scenery while we enjoyed some good food. We ordered the wings and pulled pork. Both was delicious and nice presentation. Drinks were nice and cold. Service was fast and got seated right away (Roughly 1:30-2:00 pm seating).

Came here for lunch after exploring the canyon and what a beautiful place to enjoy the scenery and some good food. Sandwiches and burgers were great, I loved the fries! Our server raved about the mac ‘n cheese so a few of us upgraded to it but personally found that it was just okay.

Wonderful restaurant with a great view. It took a while for our food to arrive, so we had plenty of time to souvenir shop and enjoyed the view. They did have the buffet line for quick eat, but we wanted something more and the dishes we ordered were pleasantly tasty and beautifully plated.

We ate here after hiking in the canyons. The space is very comfortable. We stayed in the patio & enjoyed the view. We ordered burgers for a quick meal - pulled pork burgers, beef brisket & bison burger. Everything was so tasty with the fries, coleslaw & especially the bison burger!

Our visit to Maligne Canyon Wilderness Kitchen was one of my favorite lunches on our BC & Alberta roadtrip mid-September. Service here was very efficient and friendly (even though it was pretty busy) and I liked that everything appeared well organized. The food was delicious; we had two sandwiches, one with soup and one with salad, everything was fresh, tasty and came out fast. We also had a drink which was very good. The views are very nice as well, especially if you catch a clear day. Don’t forget to check out Maligne Canyon while you’re here - it’s truly spectacular and beautiful!

Wow!! This was one of the most delicious meals we’ve had. Location/food/drinks/service/price all 5/5. If there’s a way to give this place 6/5, I would. We went on a weekday in July and sat on the patio - this is a late review. The outdoor environment is serene as you’re overlooking the Maligne Canyon trails. The indoor seating is cozy, modern and subtle. We tried a large variety of cocktails dishes, everything was well-executed, balanced yet complex. From the cocktail menu, I’d recommend the Rumpert’s Campfire! This whisky based drink is transformed with bitters, roasted marshmallows, and infused in a smoky wood plate. We each had a second round after quickly gulping down the first. Other favorites include the Prickly Bear and Observation Peak. On the food menu, I really enjoyed Bison Tartare, Brisket, and the Bison Striploin. My only regret is only having a day in Jasper, otherwise I’d be back for brunch and dinner a second time! Hopefully we’ll be able to get out there and excited to see what new cocktails and dishes land on their menu.

Syrahs of Jasper is an intimate and warm-hued eatery and bar located in downtown Jasper. The restaurant offers a changing menu featuring regional Canadian cuisine, with dishes made from fresh Alberta bison, Angus beef, British Columbian seafood, and creative sides like hand-made potato gnocchi or white-cheddar poutine.
What a surprise and first time customer!! Having lived and travelled many places this restaurant is right up there. Don’t be fooled by the storefront which is misconspicuous…what you get for quality, presentation and price is amazing. The duck, elk and salads are incredible. If you’re in Jasper… don’t miss having a diner here. I took a couple pics of our meals.

Shared a beautiful meal here celebrating my friends bachelor party. The service was excellent, and the wait staff was attentive. Would recommend for any special occasion or just treating yourself! The old fashioned was my fave drink on the menu and the amuse bouche was a lovely start to a delicious meal.

Awesome food and service. We ordered wild boar chops which was one of their featured dishes for the evening. Juicy and tender,very nice. The wild mushrooms and lentil loaf was a bit burnt at the bottom. That's why four stars for food. House salad tastes delicious with house made dressings. Our server told us everything in the restaurant is house made.

Absolutely wonderful place that felt very cozy. The waitress was so attentive and kind. Her recommendations were on point and the freebie items of the bison tartar and the carrot and chive biscuit were delicious. The chef has made it so that most of the menu is gluten free, which I think is pretty cool. The bison striploin was scrumptious and to die for. They do have a plant based option on the lentil meatloaf which I thought was pretty well seasoned and very delicious. The desserts were out of this world! The goat cheese cheesecake with blackberries was so good that it tasted like an elevated version of an Oreo cheesecake. And the creme brule of the day was spoon-licking good. Overall, it is a place that you have to visit and have a dinner at least once! It's pretty romantic too, so bring your date!

This is the best restaurant we have been at in Jasper, and we have eaten in the top 10 of them. Everything was delicious and special. The server was so nice, when she asked if we needed anything else, I made a joke that world peace would be nice, so she drew me that. The food was Michelin level. If you want a better life, try their cheese cake. The drinks were also delicious. We will come back in our next visit.

I was skeptical at first with the mixed reviews, but I am so glad I ignored the bad ones because I had an amazing dinner here. The elk carpaccio is honestly one of the best dishes I've had ever, even more enjoyable than some Michelin star restaurant dish and I'm really not exaggerating. The caramelized onion tart was also amazing, really amazing pastry and tomatoes and herbs were a perfect match. The bison rib eye was a highlight. Very flavourful and perfectly cooked, normally I don't like my streaks with any sauces but this sour cherry glaze worked so well with it. Elk Wellington...I'm normally not a fan of the tenderloin cut but this was really perfectly done as well. Keep in mind there's a strong mustard used for the Wellington. I liked it but for those who don't like the mustard/horseradish kick, be warned it is a strong flavour. I think you get the point of you're still reading my essay. Just eat here...you won't regret it! Well done Syrahs! I'd give 6 stars if I could.

I came to this restaurant because we read amazing reviews, and they didn't disappoint. Make sure you book reservations ahead of time, because I saw numerous people get turned away due to the full capacity of the restaurant. Our server, I believe his name was Brian was an amazing host for the evening. He was welcoming, friendly, attentive and professional. For starters, me and my friend split the elk capasscio, and grime meatball. Elk capasscio was delicious, and packed with flavours. Super light and tasty. Grime meatball, I felt lacked flavour and felt like it was just sitting in tomato sauce and onions. Main course, I had the Elk Wellington, which was cooked perfectly. Pasty was very flaky and crisp, and elk was cooked to a nice medium rare. Mashed potato and berry sauce paired very well with everything. I highly recommend coming to this restaurant, as it was one of the highlights of my trip!
Terry C — Google review
The vibe inside is appreciated. Service was profession and attentive but casual, not trying to be too fancy. Complimentary (included) pallet cleansers and biscuit is a welcome and appreciated touch. The menu is intriguing. Elk carpaccio was good but I felt it was overpowered by everything else on the plate and the quality of those elements didn’t match the elk. Bison was good, like a slow cooked beef and the richness of the vegetable sauce was savourable. Unfortunately I found it hard to find the 3day smokey flavour, and the gnocchi was far more of potato flavour and texture then I would expect. Dessert also enjoyed. Overall all nice food, but at $90+ pp it was just too expensive for the flavours I got and the quality of the ingredients. I’m glad I tried but I wouldn’t return. I’ve had better for less.

Embark on a journey through the stunning Maligne Lake with a Maligne Lake Cruise. This seasonal cruise, available from June to October, offers a 2-hour tranquil ride amidst breathtaking views and potential wildlife sightings along the shores. Marvel at the turquoise alpine waters of the longest natural lake in the Canadian Rockies and be captivated by the snow-capped Rocky Mountain peaks and the iconic Spirit Island.
My wife and two sons enjoyed a wonderful cruise on this lake last week and it was totally worth the effort of getting there and the cost. Incredibly beautiful scenery. The boat was well kept and we had two fantastic leaders of our cruise. Alex was an excellent captain and Sydney was an awesome guide. It was playful and informative and a highlight of our trip. Highly recommend if you’re looking for some awe inspiring scenery!

My wife and I had an incredible time on the Maligne Lake boat tour, and we can't recommend it enough! If you can, book the first tour of the morning; the calm water and beautiful light make for a truly magical experience. ​Our guide, Jack, and our captain, Kat, were both absolutely fantastic. You can tell they genuinely love their jobs, and their passion for the lake and its history made the trip so much more than just a boat ride. They were both super knowledgeable and made the tour incredibly informative and fun. We also felt very safe the entire time, as they made it clear that safety was a top priority. ​The stop at Spirit Island was a highlight—it's even more beautiful in person than in pictures! It's a truly breathtaking place. We're so glad we booked our tickets in advance, as it seems like this tour is really popular. ​This was an experience we'll never forget, and it's all thanks to the wonderful team.

We went on the 1st boat tour of the day and probably the best time of day we had fantastic weather and were the first people on spirit island. Our guides Nat and Kat were great and the tour was informative and enjoyable. We also had the privilege of seeing moose swimming across the lake before the tour and then after the tour we walked around the moose loop walk and saw 3 moose which made the trip even more memorable. I would recommend this trip.

Taking the Maligne Lake Spirit Island Cruise was truly one of the highlights of my trip to Jasper. The whole experience feels like stepping into a postcard. The lake itself is this unbelievable shade of deep glacier blue, sparkling under the sun, and surrounded by dramatic snow-dusted peaks that seem to rise endlessly around you. The air was crisp and refreshing, and there was something so calming about the steady sound of the boat gliding through the water—it was peaceful yet exhilarating at the same time. The scenery along the 90-minute cruise was nothing short of breathtaking. Every turn revealed another mountain range, cascading valleys, and reflections of the sky dancing on the lake’s surface. And, of course, arriving at Spirit Island was unforgettable—it’s one of those places that makes you stop, breathe, and feel so small in the best way possible. The view there is iconic for a reason, and seeing it in person was absolutely surreal. A huge shout-out to our guide, Nelson, who made the entire journey so engaging and memorable. He shared fascinating stories, history, and facts about the lake, glaciers, and the area’s Indigenous heritage, which made me appreciate the place even more. His passion for Jasper really shone through. The rest of the crew was also wonderful—friendly, professional, and full of knowledge that added so much depth to the experience. If you’re in Jasper, this is an absolute must-do. The beauty of Maligne Lake and Spirit Island is indescribable until you’re there, surrounded by mountains, fresh air, and that vivid turquoise water. This cruise is one of those experiences that stays with you forever. 💞💞💞

A must do cruise! The views were breathtaking after a few delayed tours due to the poor weather. The whole tour you are surrounded by these mountains covered in snow (If you go right tome of year) Massive shoutout to our tour guide Sydney she was incredible, very knowledgeable and funny. You can see the passion she has for this job and Jasper national park. Also a shoutout to the captain! (Forgot his name) excellent piloting, very smooth ride from start to finish.

When we first arrived for our scheduled cruise, it was raining cats and dogs and we could not see anything beyond the boathouse. Fortunately the ladies at the ticket booth were very helpful with the (fickle) forecast and rebooking us to the next day on the 4:45pm cruise. This turned out to be the best decision as the skies cleared completely and the sun illuminated all the peaks surrounding Maligne Lake all the way to Spirit Island. Our captain Syd and tour guide Alex M were both wonderful and Alex gave some helpful tips for the ski season in the Rockies. While spirit island itself was unfortunately not a recipient of the late afternoon sun, everything else was completely perfect and the weather window promptly slammed shut when we arrived back at the docks. Excellent experience that I would happily do again when I return to the area.

This boat tour was so worth money. It was extraordinary. The captain and tour guide were very knowledgeable about the area and even gave us a bit of extra time once we got out there. If I'm being honest, Spirit Island was a little bit disappointing given all the hype it gets, but the boat ride getting there was incredible. The mountains surrounding the water in untouched areas were just breathtaking. I would highly recommend this.

We had an absolutely amazing experience on the Maligne Lake Cruise! The scenery was breathtaking, and being out on the water surrounded by the mountains felt magical. A huge thank you to Captain Alex and our tour guide Jordan R. – they truly made the trip unforgettable. Captain Alex navigated the cruise so smoothly and safely. I absolutely loved the refreshing splash of the lake water as it hit during the cruise—it made the experience even more thrilling and memorable. and Jordan kept us engaged with fascinating stories, history, and fun facts about the lake and Spirit Island. His enthusiasm and knowledge made the experience even more enjoyable. It was a perfect combination of natural beauty and outstanding service. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Jasper – it’s definitely a highlight of the trip!

Maligne Lake, located in Jasper National Park, Alberta, is a picturesque destination featuring Spirit Island and stunning views of mountains and glaciers. The lake's vibrant colors and breathtaking glacial mountain vistas make it one of the most photographed natural sites globally. It serves as the starting point for popular hiking trails like the Skyline and offers activities such as kayaking, canoeing, and fishing.
We had a great experience moving lake. It was amazing view. There is some few trails down there if you are interested to do some trading, but you can go with your family and spend some time there. There is a really nice restaurant there. You can try the food. It’s amazing you can also do a cruise which will take you to small tour. We did not do it.

My fave lake during my 2 week, travelling trip to Canada (more so than Lake Louise). It’s quieter (I went at the end of August), it’s picturesque, there are lots of trails you can go on. There’s a beautiful lake view restaurant and a FAB ice cream and waffle shop. I bought a Christmas decoration from the gift shop. You can go on boat trips (I didn’t- pre booking is essential). And you can kayak (booking on the day only, so everyone has an opportunity). We did a route called “moose lake”. The small “pool” lake was very peaceful and moose are often found grazing in there. We actually saw a moose in the main lake that was a joy to see and apparently he’s often there, showing off to visitors! If it’s wildlife you’re after, we saw a grizzly on the way back down the mountain, about 8pm. Having spoke to a lot of people in the area about this encounter, they all had photos of the same bear in the same area, so I think he also is a creature of habit! Finally, we had lots of food in our RV, so we stopped the next day at lunchtime, on the way up to the lake at a river best, rest stop on the left side. It was so joyous! They have fire pits with firewood to use for free! As well as picnic benches and the odd chipmunk to watch. It’s extremely picturesque and well maintained!

Amazing views with mountain backdrop. Didn’t do the cruise as it felt little overpriced and had other activities planned for the day. It can be an excellent picnic spot however there aren’t a ton of sitting areas near the water (reason I am docking a star). Either, you’ll have to walk further along the trail to find a good spot or sit away from the water. Plenty of parking with 2 overflow lots up the hill from the main parking lot.

Maligne Lake is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever visited. The beautiful water surrounded by towering mountains feels like something out of a painting. Walking along the trails, every turn offers another stunning view — from peaceful forest paths to lookout points where you can see the lake stretch endlessly into the distance. We took time to just sit by the water and enjoy the calm, and it was incredible watching the reflections of the peaks change with the light. There are boat tours that take you out to Spirit Island, which is truly magical and worth every minute. The air feels so fresh, and there’s plenty of wildlife and scenic spots for photos. Even though the area has been affected by fires, the natural beauty still shines through — and it’s amazing to see how the land is healing. If you love nature, photography, or just peaceful places, Maligne Lake is a must-see in Jasper National Park.

Absolutely beautiful! Lots of trails to walk, some off the path. The lake itself is beautiful and clean! They have lake tours for a pretty penny, and you can also rent canoes to go on the lake. There is also a restaurant nearby! The drive up is a little long, but beautiful sights on the way up.

We got here in bad weather, but it made the lake even more attractive. The beautiful color of the water is surrounded by trees (unfortunately burnt on one side).

Amazing Medicine lake lookout point. Lake itself is magnificient with exceptional view of mountains. This look out point wont take long unless you go for a hike. You can even walk to the lake and walkway is doable but not accessible for stroller or wheelchair. Ample parking but on a busy day you may not find spots. No washroom and only one bench. This lake has potential of development I wonder why ita not done yet. Over all I am glad we stopped as views are breath taking. Wild life were very close and the mountains looked amazing.

Lake Annette Beach is a charming spot located near Jasper townsite, easily accessible by vehicle or bicycle. The lake offers cold and clear water suitable for swimming in the summer. It features a paved loop trail that is wheelchair accessible, offering scenic views all around. Despite being popular during hot summer days, it remains less crowded compared to other larger lakes in the area, providing ample free parking and clean facilities including a kids' playground and picnic tables.
In May, parking is convenient for RVs, the water is shallow, and there are picnic tables and chairs by the lake, making it perfect for a picnic.

Lake Annette is gorgeous and relatively untraveled. There were only a few day-trip hikers we ran across in the 3 hours we spent here. The lake is likely wonderful in the summer when you can swim in it's crystal blue waters without fear of frostbite. It also is an early season attraction given it is one of the few lakes that is melted by early May. A must see!

Oka Sushi offers a unique and intimate dining experience with only one chef and server. The owner and chef, Tatsuhiko Okazaki, is known for creating delightful combinations using the freshest ingredients. Guests can sit at tables or at the small bar to watch the sushi being prepared a la minute. One of their popular dishes is the Jasper Roll, which features crab meat and shrimp served with a spicy sauce.
A must go whenever I’m in Jasper - I don’t even understand how the fish is so fresh here. Advanced reservation is a must, there’s only seating for 10 per seating/time. Oka special roll, negitoro, and octopus salad are a must. Amazing experience and food.

The best sushi we’ve ever had! We got lucky and got a table as walk ins and it turned out to be the best part of our Jasper trip. The sushi was so fresh and delicious, it was also a joy watching chef Oka make them. We look forward to visiting again soon! We suggest to book a table ahead of time.
Bernadette J — Google review
This is an interesting spot… I am not 100% sure why it’s so hard to get a reservation! I think maybe the locals book this place right up but thankfully we got lucky when we went as a reservation had canceled last minute. I understand now that the reason you can’t just walk in normally is because one seating lasts around 3 hours! Sort of a chill and intimate experience - one cool sushi chef, 8 bar seats - everyone just takes turns getting their rolls, drinking beer and getting to know one another at a leisurely pace. It was very unique and fun although I wouldn’t say the sushi itself was spectacular or anything… it was delicious! But I have had better sushi in Canada (nothing to do with fish quality, which was good, but more so rice/nori quality). The tastiest thing was definitely the spicy sauce which was his own special recipe. Overall I think it’s worth going at least once as we had a lovely time and left happy and full :)

If you are looking for a personal touch and want to eat authentic sushi (hand rolls), then you must try this place. Inside the Fairmont Jasper resort, tucked in a corner by the Fairmont store, this unassuming place serves the best sushi rolls. This place is small, very small; just 10 seats. 8 of them by the Sushi bar and you can see how Oka-san makes the sushi. Don't expect to be served in a hurry, because Oka-san does not rush. Enjoy the evening and order as you like. Take your time, have a conversation.

Is it Michelin Star Quality....no Is it edomae style omakase....no But is it pretty good sushi considering your in a land locked resort 3 hours away from anything that you can call a "'big city"....hell yes! Oka sushi exceeded our expectations in many ways. His fish quality is good, his portion sizes are generous and his pricing is more than reasonable.... especially considering if it's located inside a resort hotel. I especially like his Albacore Tuna Toro (no it's not as good as O-toro or Chu-toro from a blue fin) it's very fatty and full of flavor. His Amaebi and Hotate were both super fresh and very sweet. His chopped scallop Nigiri is great as he cuts up full scallops on front of you and mixes it with Japanese mayo and tobiko, rather than premade stuff.
Barry Y — Google review
Amazing place, hidden in the lower level of the main building of JPL, you’ll find the best sushi in Alberta outside of Edmonton and Calgary. Mr. Oka is a master sushi chef and makes delicious, fresh sushi rolls, sashimi, hand rolls, you name it. It’s funny because the fish tastes very fresh yet you are nowhere where the ocean - he ships in seafood from Vancouver weekly. Currently they are doing reservations between 6 and 6:30 PM but walk-ins after that until 9:30 PM. There are only around 10 seats so if it’s full when you walk-in, keep trying!

Overall, Evil Dave’s Grill is a popular choice for those seeking a distinctive dining experience in Jasper.

We haven't been to Evil Dave's Grill since they moved to this location, and since we were staying at the Marmot Lodge, we figured it was a great opportunity to have dinner at Evil Dave's with our children. I made a reservation through their website and I'm sure glad I did as the restaurant was full upon our arrival. People without reservations were either being turned away or having to wait, but it seemed as though most had made reservations. Our server was very helpful and offered some great suggestions. Our children both decided on the Hurtin' Alberta kids meal and they greatly enjoyed it, saying that the burger was better than the ones I make at home (how dare they 😆). They had some other great options for kids as well. The Little Buddha was their second choice. My wife chose the Karma Curry with chicken and naan bread, and it was easily the best dish that was ordered. It was very flavourful and filling, and I honestly wish I had ordered it myself. I ended up going with the Chef's Cut steak with daily vegetables which was perfectly cooked. Even though it was delicious with a peppercorn sauce that complimented the entire dish, I think I would've enjoyed the Karma Curry a bit more. We finished our meal by sharing their Chocolate Cake and ice cream. It definitely wasn't a cheap dinner for the family, but it was delicious and memorable. We'd definitely return again in the future.

Really enjoyed the menu here. I had the bison meatloaf and it was very good. Good service and comfortable environment. Would go again.

Food pretty great. Drinks not so much. Had a 'Cool Brew' cocktail (an espresso martini in all but name) that was the worst I've ever had. Their Instagram shows a better version than I was served, I think possibly the bartender's first day. For a place that boasts high quality cocktails, it was hilariously bad. See pic. Watched the bartender make it, he doesn't appear to understand how to shake a cocktail. Beer selection was also a lone hefeweizen. We were put on a table basically beside another large group, and seated after a couple who had a reservation a half hour after us, who got a much nicer table. Just felt like it was everybody's first day in hospitality. Everything except the food which I genuinely can't fault. My awkward order was accommodated perfectly. The chefs deserve a better everything else.

Evil Dave’s Grill – A Jasper Gem That Misses the Mark on Flavor The name Evil Dave’s Grill sets high expectations, and walking in, I was impressed. The decor is beautiful and captures the essence of Jasper perfectly—cozy, stylish, and inviting. The service matched the atmosphere: friendly, attentive, and efficient throughout the meal. Unfortunately, that’s where the praise ends. The food was a major letdown. Despite a menu that sounded promising, what arrived at the table was bland, uninspired, and lacked any real depth of flavor. It genuinely felt as if some of the dishes came straight from a can—overpriced and underwhelming. For the cost, I expected much more. Jasper isn’t short on great dining options, and sadly, Evil Dave’s didn’t deliver where it matters most: the food. With a bit more attention to flavor and creativity in the kitchen, this place could live up to its potential. Until then, it’s style over substance.

Very nice food, great service I went for the typhoon noodles with prawns and had the vicious hippies pan fried gyoza, lovely flavour throughout the noodles had a lovely background heat to them in a delicious sauce, the gyoza had a nice subtle gingery taste, id say slightly on the pricey side for what it is but can't fault the food as it was delicious and the service was impeccable.

I would absolutely come back to eat here. They were decent to deal with, however, here are my qualms… I booked for a large group of people (25+) and they gave me a menu of select items, and prices. As soon as they found out it was for a wedding, the price on each item increased by 1$-5$. I was also disappointed that despite paying additional for dinner, there was no thank you or complimentary glass of champagne for myself or my husband. Two of our family members thought that was rather odd and quite unfortunate as we got married that day and chose to celebrate at evil Dave’s. Excellent food. Subpar service.

A huge thank you to the entire team at Evil Dave’s Grill! Not only was the food amazing — the burger was super tasty and not greasy at all, and the bowl was absolutely delicious — but the service was outstanding. Everything was super fast, and our waiter was genuinely attentive, professional, and truly interested in his guests. And now for the most incredible part… I lost my passport during my visit to Jasper and accidentally left it at the restaurant. Thanks to their honesty and kindness, they found it, reached out to me, and even arranged for express shipping to my hotel in Vancouver — I honestly wouldn’t have been able to return to my country without their help. I have no words to express how grateful I am. Wonderful people, amazing food, and truly exceptional service. Highly, highly recommended. Sandy

Jasper Brewing Company is a modern brewery with a bright and stylish interior, offering housemade craft beers and elevated pub fare. It's a popular spot where visitors can settle down in front of an open fire, enjoy pub grub, watch big screen TV, and sip through a menu of craft beers.
Had a late lunch at the Jasper Brewing Company. Solid food all around. Fish and chips, wings, poutine, or just a nacho snack, all of it was top tier perfectly made. S&P wings were crispy and tasty, a good size and not dry, like many others I've had. Recommended. Lots of beer choices if you like a fruity type. I had the Crisp Pil. Easy drinking and smooth. Service was good and constant to check on things. Atmosphere was quiet, some large sports TVs. Bathrooms were clean. Overall a 5 star, will be back. Please support Jasper so that the town can be greater than it was. Thanks.

We had a spot outside in front of the business which was nice with the good weather. We just walked in without a reservation. They have a nice range of beers to choose from, some a bit more niche then the other. I also went for the elk meatloaf which was great. We had a good time.

We loved this place so much that we came three times during our 4-day stay in Jasper. That says it all! The atmosphere is great, and every staff member who served us was attentive, professional, and genuinely friendly. The beers and food were exactly what we were looking for. Highly recommended!

We stopped in at Jasper Brewing Co. and had a great experience! The atmosphere is very casual and welcoming — one side is more of a restaurant, and the other has a lively bar vibe. Service was good and friendly throughout our visit. We tried the wings and fish & chips, both were delicious and cooked perfectly. There are TVs everywhere, so it’s a great spot to catch a hockey or baseball game while enjoying a good meal and a cold drink. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Jasper!

Pretty great spot for a nice dinner! Came here to have a bit of a late dinner. Service however can be a bit understaffed because of how huge the place was- the menu had a good selection so it didn’t take long for us to know what we want, it just took long for a wait staff to notice us. Besides that, the food was really fantastic. Just make sure you know that the sides and appetizers are huge, and I’d say they are meant for sharing for up to 4-5 people and it was way too much for just two of us. A lot of TVs in the place as well as they stream some of the local sports games, so I’d say the atmosphere is pretty nice.

Got food and drinks twice at JBC during our recent hiking trip in Jasper. The service was fantastic and the Seared Halloumi Bowl was delicious 😋 The group really enjoyed the Beef Dip and the Korean Fried Chicken as well as some Crisp Pils, White Sangria and the Brad's Riefle. Thanks JBC 🦌🫎

The restaurant is quite big, which impacts the atmosphere. The service is friendly, but not fast. The 1660 stout is very nice, perhaps a bit too cold compared to Guinness. They sell nice merchandise like T-shirts and jumpers, as well as glasses (not cheap at 12$, excl tax (and excluding a drink in it!)). They have many televisions. At one point they showed the same game, but one screen was one minute behind the other one, which was slightly irritably

Just an amazing time, the guides were charismatic, fun, and knowledgeable. They were very passionate about rafting and that passion made all the difference, we had two boats, and each and everyone had the same feedback. It was one of the best adventures they have ever had. Always felt taken care of, save, and they made sure we all had fun. I would highly recommend this company to anyone thinking about rafting the Athabasca. We had a mix of people who had some experience and first timers like myself, The adventure was perfect for first timers.

We had an absolutely amazing experience on Saturday, August 29th with the 9am Athabasca Falls/Canyon trip! Our raft guide, Connor Reinhardt 😍, was a total pro—fun, knowledgeable, and made the whole trip memorable. The Jasper Rafting Company provided everything we needed for a chilly, rainy day: warm wetsuits, water shoes, socks, and even hats and mitts. Highly recommend this route and company, especially for first-timers!

Absolutely amazing experience. My family of two parents and two teenage daughters had a blast. Our guide Jordan was especially great and the rest of the team worked together seamlessly. From getting you into your wetsuit, on the raft, down the river and back ashore everything was top notch. Highly recommend this if you are looking for something a little more adventurous on your trip but not too over the top. As an added bonus they took some pretty great photos for us during the trip that you could purchase at the end of the trip.

This company was awesome! Our family of six had the best time last week rafting the 5 mile Athabasca. We had for kids with us ranging from 6-17. All of them voted this was one their favorite things during our ten day Canadian Rockies vacation. Ollie was our River guide and he was amazing! He kept us entertained the entire time, and also shared lots of really cool stories and history about Jasper and the surrounding areas. The weather was very cool and a little rainy when we went, but the company had us more than prepared. Our wet suits kept us very warm, and everything (the driving/changing/etc) was very efficient. We can’t recommend this company enough. Please take the trip up the Ice Fields Pkwy to Jasper, stay a few days, and have an awesome time rafting with Jasper Rafting Adventures!

We did the Athabasca Falls trip with Jasper Rafting Adventures on Aug 3, 2025. Our guide was Ollie and our bus driver was Aaron. They were amazing! Our kids are 7 & 10 and this trip was the perfect mix of beautiful views and exciting rapids. Huge thank you to Ollie for being so engaged with our curious and chatty 7 year old. Ollie was kind, funny and shared some great facts about the area. Our whole family loved being able to jump overboard and float along side of the boat for a little bit. We felt safe the entire time (even when our bus driver Aaron had to take extra precaution to avoid selfish drivers in a hurry). We had so much fun that we purchased all of our pictures so we would be able to share with friends and family and remember it forever! We absolutely recommend Jasper Rafting adventures!

Jasper Raft Tours Ltd offers an adrenaline-pumping experience as you navigate the powerful Athabasca River amidst the stunning Canadian Rockies. The tour promises thrilling rapids, bends, and turns that will surely get your heart racing. With knowledgeable and friendly staff like Finn, Katrina, Joel, Dave, and Noah, you'll feel safe and well-informed throughout the journey. While getting wet is part of the fun, they provide safety vests for a secure ride.
A highlight of our trip! Our family, from little kids to big kids, loved it. Our bus driver, Dave, and our raft guide, Court, were both so knowledgeable, funny, and personable. There were only 12 passengers on our raft so we all had plenty of room. The few rapids were not scary, we learned a lot, it was an enjoyable ride, and we saw an elk along the river. You will probably get splashed- some more than others- but that was part of the fun. Recommend 100%. Have an extra set of clothes in your car if you’re staying outside of Jasper!

I joined this activity to support the team, who were severely impacted by the 2024 forest fires. The crew was professional, experienced, and handled the rafts with great care and skill. It was heartbreaking to witness the devastation left by the fires—the landscape told a powerful story. The rafting trip itself was an average experience. It felt a bit long, especially on a cold day after being splashed by the icy river water. I recommend coming prepared with a full change of clothes, proper footwear, and layers suited to the temperature. As I was seated at the back of the raft, I struggled to hear much of the guide’s commentary. Understandably, it’s difficult for the guide to project while rowing, but it meant missing out on some of the stories shared during the journey. Overall, a meaningful experience made more impactful by the cause it supports.

Booked this as we had some free time in Jasper. What a great decision. From the moment we were picked up we had the best experience. Driver was hilarious and our guide down the river was superb. It was a great way to see some more of the country and we would thoroughly recommend it.

Our Jasper Raft Tours experience on the Athabasca River was absolutely incredible, and we thoroughly enjoyed every moment! It was a fantastic way to immerse ourselves in the stunning natural beauty of Jasper National Park. A special shout-out is absolutely necessary for Finn, our captain! He was outstanding. Not only did he keep us all safe throughout the journey, but his experience truly shone through as he masterfully navigated some of the shallower parts of the river. Thanks to him, we avoided getting excessively wet or stuck, which made for a much more comfortable and enjoyable ride. Finn's calm demeanor and evident expertise made us feel completely at ease. Beyond Finn, all the other staff we encountered were incredibly nice and pleasant. They really gave off the impression that they genuinely enjoyed their jobs, which added a wonderful, positive vibe to the entire operation, from check-in to getting geared up. And of course, the scenery was simply breathtaking. Rafting down the Athabasca River offered a unique and truly special vantage point. Being on the water, looking up at the towering mountains, lush forests (unfortunately after wildfires), and crystal-clear skies, provided a perspective that you just can't get from the hiking trails or roads. It was truly majestic. We highly recommend Jasper Raft Tours for anyone visiting the area. It's an unforgettable adventure with amazing views and an even more amazing team!

He helped us all feel that we were in good hands. Also, it was a great way to come to a deeper understanding of the river and the ecosystem and how it is recovering after the fire. What a great way to spend part of the time in Jasper.

We decided last minute to do this rafting trip before we departed our stay in Jasper. We had our 2 children with us (ages 17 and 9) and we all had a great time. Our bus driver (I believe his name was Dave) had us laughing on our drive to the launch site and our guide Connor was fantastic and kept us entertained and wet. It was a bit chilly as it was overcast and calling for some rain but my son insisted on getting us as wet as possible lol. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Jasper!

The Jasper-Yellowhead Museum & Archives is a charming local museum that offers a glimpse into the rich history of Jasper National Park and the Yellowhead Corridor. Through its extensive collection of artifacts, photographs, and displays, the museum preserves and shares the area's Indigenous heritage, fur trade legacy, and pioneer developments. With three distinct galleries showcasing historical exhibits and a showcase gallery featuring local art, visitors can immerse themselves in Jasper's early days and gain a deeper understanding of the community's origins.
I absolutely loved this! Harkened back to days of old with the train museum. Entry is by donation and although, there was much to see inside, I found the outside to be simply incredible as evidenced by the pictures. As with almost all my reviews, it's the staff who make or break the customer service experience. Here is no exception as the staff were fantastic! Helpful, very friendly and equally informative. They give recommendations on some great food choices. Highly recommend multiple visits if you ever find yourself in Jasper. It's a very family friendly venue. LOVED IT!

The YellowHead Museum and Archives in Jasper, Alberta, is a true gem! I was captivated by the unique exhibits showcasing the rich history and vibrant culture of the Canadian Rockies. From the compelling stories of early pioneers and Indigenous communities to the fascinating displays of local wildlife and geology, there's something to pique everyone's interest. The museum's passionate staff and volunteers clearly love what they do, and their enthusiasm is contagious. Don't miss the chance to explore this wonderful institution – it's an enriching and memorable experience for all ages!

I discovered the Jasper Museum through Instagram and decided to check it out and I’m so glad I did! It’s a perfect 1–2 hour stop, whether you’re a history buff or visiting with kids. The museum is filled with fascinating displays, historical artifacts, and even taxidermy animals that give you a deeper appreciation of how Jasper National Park came to be. Everything is well organized, informative, and engaging a great way to learn about the local history, early settlers, and the railway’s role in the area’s development. There’s also a lovely little gift shop with unique items, local art, books, and thoughtful souvenirs. It’s definitely worth a visit if you’re in Jasper and looking for something meaningful, educational, and family-friendly.

A cute little museum. Entry is by donation, so pay what you will. They recommend $8. This museum is run by volunteers and they are always trying to fundraise to keep the doors open. This museum focuses mainly on the history of Jasper (the town and the park), which exhibits explaining the importance of the railroad as well as the job of the early park wardens. They also had 2 special exhibits, which appear to change seasonally. There is a gift shop with a good variety of books in the foyer area.

Nestled in the heart of nature, Alpine Village Jasper offers a delightful retreat with its charming log cabins that perfectly blend rustic charm and modern comforts. Spanning 11 acres alongside the picturesque Athabasca River, this resort has been welcoming guests for over 70 years. With a variety of cabin sizes accommodating between two to five guests, families can easily find their ideal space.
Absolutely loved our stay here. The staff were beyond friendly and the rooms were incredibly cozy and clean. The hot tub had a mountain view which was lovely. The grounds were absolutely beautiful as well. We really enjoyed being given the option to choose our own firewood for the wood fireplace in our room. Staying here was a wonderful experience and a highlight of our road trip through the Rockies. It is located very close to the sky tram and township of Jasper which was very nice as well. I would highly recommend staying here as part of the Jasper experience.

Wow! This place felt like our home away from home for a few days. Erica at the front desk is awesome. She had lots of great local restaurant and hiking recommendations. They were very proactive in telling us about construction going on in the area for new cabins. It was not a disturbance regardless. If we come back, we would stay here again in a heartbeat. You can walk into town from here if you want to on trails. The cabins were very spacious and everything was conveniently located. The cleaning staff was really friendly as well. The hot pool was empty most of the time and delightful. The changing room provided with the hot pool was convenient and clean too.

We had a wonderful stay at Alpine Village. The staff were very warm and welcoming, helpful and quick with responding to any queries we had even before we arrived. The location is beautiful, right along the Athabasca river and a nice 2 km walk to and from the town. Gorgeous and sparkling clean cabins, we had a lovely time watching the elk around the property. Thank you Alpine Village Team for everything! :) A minor suggestion - it would be great to have a trolley available for guests to carry their luggage to the cabins (for those who don't have a car).

One of the best hotel/rentals I’ve stayed at. Cabin was warm and inviting. Love coming home to the fireplace after a long day of hiking. Perfect on a chilly fall day.

Husband and I loved this place. We were extremely satisfied with this booking and I'm so glad I chose it and stuck with it despite the fire damage notices. Half of the cabins were burned down in the 2024 Summer fire in Jasper. However, the currently rented cabins are on the other side of the property and we never felt impacted by the work on the other side. The location is gorgeous near the Athabasca River with a place to sit and enjoy the scenery. The Main cabin has wood, food, and what nots for purchase if wanted/needed. And a Spa we didn't use, but nice that it's there. The room was awesome. We loved it. The deluxe Bedroom Cabin with a Fireplace, King Bed, kitchenette (small fridge and microwave), semi-private balcony (it's private, but how private can you be in a duplex situation) and dual head shower with heated floors bathroom.

We loved our 3 night stay at alpine village. It was a lovely, cosy, clean cabin in peaceful surroundings but just a very short drive or slightly longer wander into Jasper. The staff were friendly and provided a fan on request which was needed as it was super hot when we visited. The shower products were the best - we even ended up buying some! We loved sitting in the chairs provided by the river after a long day of hiking/exploring. Would definitely stay again in the future and we were just sad we didn't get to stay longer!

Lake Edith and Lake Annette

4.8
(255)
Park
Picnic ground
Lake Annette and Lake Edith are beautiful kettle lakes that formed at the end of the ice age in the Athabasca valley. Fed by an underground river system from Medicine Lake, these blue-green colored lakes offer opportunities for canoeing, kayaking, and stand-up paddleboarding. The lakes are shallow and relatively warm, making them perfect for swimming on a hot day. Hiking trails like Bighorn Alley lead to the lakes, providing additional exploration options after enjoying the sandy beaches.
So sad for the fires in Jasper. A few days before it was perfect. Great bike trails and 2 warm mountain lakes for SUP and swimming due to long period of +30C days.. No bugs. Hopefully this area was spared.

Lake Edith is a serene and picturesque lake situated just a short drive from the town of Jasper. It is known for its crystal-clear, emerald-blue waters and stunning mountainous backdrop. There's a small beach area and a picnic site, making it a great spot for families to relax and soak in the natural beauty. Lake Annette is located very close to Lake Edith and shares many of the same scenic qualities. Like Lake Edith, it boasts clear waters surrounded by lush forests and towering mountain peaks. Both lakes offer fantastic opportunities for wildlife viewing, especially during the early morning or late afternoon. Keep an eye out for elk, deer, and various bird species. Canoeing and kayaking are popular activities on both lakes, allowing you to get up close to the natural beauty that surrounds them. Overall, Lake Edith and Lake Annette are gems within Jasper National Park. Whether you're an outdoor adventurer or someone seeking tranquility, these lakes are well worth a visit when exploring the Canadian Rockies.

I actually prefer these smaller lakes compared to the bigger/more popular ones. These small ones are not as crowded, easy to find free parking, almost just as beautiful as the popular ones, you can swim in them, washroom is cleaner. There is also a kids playground. Picnic tables available. There's also paddle boards for rent at cheaper price (but check the operational days/hours)

We loved the paved trail around lake Annette. Beautiful place to walk around. Beach is not dog friendly but we were able to walk the dogs on the path. It was nice to have a paved path to walk on as it was raining pretty good and we didn’t want the dogs to get super muddy.

It's worth for visiting. It's beautiful and peaceful. We saw a lot of Elks. There are ample parking spaces, picnic areas, beach and clean restrooms.

Two nice lakes in Jasper that are not well visited, making it a wonderful place to relax. There are lots of trails for exercise and exploration. The water looks equally pleasing for water activities. Great open expanses for picnic and the view are just as picturesque as the rest of the Rockies. Next to Lake Annette is the small Ochre Lake which is supposed to be a quicksand area. Altogether, this place is worth a visit if you are in Jasper.

North Face Pizza is a family-friendly restaurant located at 618 Connaught Dr, offering a variety of delicious options. Their waffle fries topped with cheese curds, gravy, crispy chicken strips, and hot honey drizzle are a must-try. In addition to their classic and affordable pizzas, they also cater to gluten-sensitive customers with options like cauliflower dough or gluten-free crusts. The friendly staff and homey atmosphere make it a great spot for families.
One of my favorite pizza joints in Canada! Such friendly staff and clean restaurant. Conveniently located on the main drag in Jasper. Chose my own ingredients: pepperoni , mushrooms & anchovies. They pile on the toppings and a ton of cheese !!! Make your own or choose from the menu. They also have a wide variety of meal offerings. I posted the entire menu. I stop in here whenever I can. You should to.

If you're in Jasper and craving a mouthwatering pizza, there's a place you absolutely must visit. I had the pleasure of trying their fully-loaded pizza, and it was nothing short of amazing. The crust was perfectly crispy, and the toppings were fresh and generous, offering a delightful mix of flavors in every bite. The pizza was baked to perfection, with just the right balance of cheese and sauce. Not only was the food fantastic, but the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the service was friendly and efficient. It's definitely a spot to check out if you're looking for a great meal in Jasper. Highly recommended!🤤🤤

Stopped by North Face Pizza in Jasper and it did not disappoint. We sat outside to soak in the fresh mountain air and stunning views—definitely the right call. The pizza was delicious, with a great crust and generous toppings. Service was quick and friendly, and it’s in a perfect spot for a casual bite after a day of hiking or exploring the town. A solid stop if you're in Jasper and craving some good pizza with a view

There weren't many Pizza places open in Jasper when we came through and this one seemed to have some of the better ratings, but we weren't excited about it. We ordered a couple of pizzas. The largest you can get is 12 inches. We also had declined an order of cheese bread but for whatever reason they made it and charged us for it ($20), he offered to refund it, but I felt bad since they had already made the bread. So he offered us a couple of free sodas. We ate half of each of the 2 pizzas we ordered, which were again only 12 inches in diameter. They were mediocre at best. Definitely not a place I would return and order from again. The service was good, but food. Was definitely not to my liking.
Mr. F — Google review
When we came it was not busy, there was no one in the restaurant. We ordered a large loaded pizza to go. The pizza took about 15 minutes to make which is pretty standard. The pizza looked ok when we got it, although it probably could have been baked longer to get the cheese more toasted. Taste wise it's ok, nothing life changing especially considering the price. But what really bothered us is the bottom of the pizza was really soggy. The crust was crispy but near the middle (and anywhere in the 2nd picture) you can see there is a lot of water for some reason. Probably the toppings were not properly drained of water before putting them on the pizza. As a result a majority of your slice will be soggy, only the crust was dry. The soggy texture was really off putting. Overall, I wouldn't come again.

The franchise has gained significant strength and popularity, especially during tough economic times. Customers have praised Subway locations for their cleanliness, late-night availability, and friendly staff.

The subs at the Jasper Subway are as good as any other Subway outlet I've been to. They keep the line moving pretty well when it's busy. The only thing that stands out is the pricing. You will pay significantly more for a sub here than you do at any random Subway restaurant you may visit.
Charles W — Google review
Bought 2 footlong subs here today. The server was not friendly at all, nor was she as generous with the toppings as we expected and almost threw them onto the subs. Consequently the subs were very bready and drier than usual. We probably won't be going to this place for the rest of our Jasper stay.

I’d rather eat out of the trash from the brewery next door than this subway. Very poorly managed for its location. It’s understaffed. And the staff there were slower than Cheech and Chong after a Grateful Dead concert.

We recently stopped here on our way from Vancouver to Edmonton, we stopped around 11 30 pm and surprisingly all places around here were open and subway too, for a small place like Jasper didn't expect it but then they're open till very late This place is very clean and neat, it was also very busy even at 11 30, pretty impressive. The staff is nice and you'll love your sub here

So I want to start off and say that all of the amazing staff here are exactly that. Amazing! I myself spent 8 years working in the food industry and I know what it's like to work in fast food. Today I came into subway at around 3pm. There was a nice new young woman who started working for about a month now. I know this as I am a regular customer. She handled herself with grace and was very nice to a family whom I saw gave her a hard time. I just wanted to point this out because everyone here deserves to be treated fairly and with patience. I wish more people could be that way with the workers. None the less. I am always happy coming in with my service :)

Coffee shop
Canadian chain for signature premium-blend coffee, plus light fare, pastries & breakfast sandwiches.
A Perfect Start to the Day in Jasper! If you're in Jasper and looking for a cozy, welcoming spot to start your morning, Tim Hortons here is a must-visit. The atmosphere is incredibly warm and inviting — the charming interior and the breathtaking early morning mountain air create a perfect pairing with a hot cup of coffee. Yes, it does get a bit crowded in the morning, but that’s only a sign of how popular and loved this place is. Despite the hustle, everything runs smoothly, and service remains friendly and efficient. A special shoutout to Jason, one of the staff members who truly stood out during our visit. He was exceptionally kind and helpful — you can tell he takes pride in making customers feel welcome and cared for. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite before exploring the national park or just sipping coffee while watching the morning unfold in Jasper, this Tim Hortons delivers every time. Highly recommended!

We're heading back to the U.S. after a short vacation in Jasper, and we just had to share our wonderful first-time experience at Tim Hortons Jasper! The breathtaking mountain views outside, combined with the beautiful heritage structure of the store, made it a truly special stop. But what made it even more memorable was the incredible service — especially from the Filipino crew who served us last night. They were so kind, friendly, and welcoming. A special shoutout to the muscular guy (possibly the manager?) — I didn’t get his name, but he deserves all the praise! The way he carried himself, the way he spoke, and the way he moved — everything was so professional and confident. Even with the long line of customers, he led his team with calmness and precision. He was handling multiple and complex orders while answering customer inquiries — and doing it all with a smile. I personally thanked him for his efficiency and impressive service, but what struck me the most was his humility — he told me, "I can’t take the credit alone, it’s all because of the team." That speaks volumes about the kind of leader he is. It was honestly one of the best service experiences me and my family have ever had. Thank you, Tim Hortons Jasper team! We’ll see you again next year. More power and keep up the amazing work! 🇨🇦❤️☕️

The staff here are so nice. They are welcoming and personable. When they’re not too busy they make an effort to ask you about your day all while multi tasking and making your order. It’s refreshing to be in a place that sees you as a person and not just another customer to rush along. Of all the Tim's I’ve been to, far and wide, this place is my favorite just because of the delightful staff! ❤❤❤😍😍

The flatbread they made had so less chicken and the sides were also blank. Half of the pizza was thrown because of the edges. I have had this flatbread before as well from Tim hortons but was never this bad. I went on the 13th september.Worst service.Would never recommend anyone.

I’ve been avoiding Tim Hortons for a while because most feel like basic road stop gas stations — but not this one in Jasper! Walking into this location is a totally different experience. The staff are incredible — they work hard, take pride in what they do, and have genuinely great conversations with customers. You couldn’t ask for a better Tim Hortons. 100% recommend this place

I ended a toxic relationship. After years of love bombing, sweetness, addiction, and disappointment… I finally broke up with Tim Hortons Our last moment? A BLT with no sauce slapped together half assed and the wrong drink…again. The error rate? Easily 80% The vibe? Bland. The food? My school cafeteria was better, why do I pay for this?! If you’re still holding on, I get it. Denial is comforting. But one day, you too will look at your incorrect coffee order and say, “I deserve better.” Farewell, old friend. I’ll remember the good times. Mostly from the 1990’s.

Restaurant
The Stand Easy Lounge, located within the Jasper Royal Canadian Legion in Jasper National Park, is a distinctive service club and community establishment. It offers a wide selection of craft beers on tap, delectable pub-style cuisine, and live music. This venue has gained recognition as one of the top small music venues in North America and is popular among both emerging and established musicians.
Located in the heart of Jasper, Alberta, the Royal Canadian Legion, Jasper Branch No. 31 offers a delightful dining experience amidst the pleasant outdoor surroundings. The weather was perfect during our visit, allowing us to relish the scenic beauty while indulging in a satisfying meal. The outdoor seating area comprised twelve spacious tables, accommodating groups of 4-6 people comfortably. Though renowned for their beer selection, we opted for a lighter fare. The Deep Fried Pork with sweet Thai sauce was a mouthwatering delight. The succulent pork was perfectly cooked, and the sauce provided a delightful balance of flavors. The Nachos, generously topped with melted cheese, jalapeños, and salsa, were a crunchy and savory treat. For dessert, we couldn't resist the apple crumble cone, which was accompanied by a generous dollop of whipped cream. The combination of warm, cinnamon-infused apple crumble and cool, creamy whipped cream was simply heavenly. The service was attentive and friendly, and the staff ensured a pleasant dining experience throughout. Our visit to the Royal Canadian Legion, Jasper Branch No. 31 was a delightful culinary adventure, offering tasty bites and a serene outdoor ambiance that perfectly complemented our meal.

I had an amazing time at The Stand Easy! The atmosphere was relaxed, a lot of historical information hang on the walls. Very welcoming, with great music that wasn’t too loud. The bartenders were super friendly specialy Sue and Karlie..best cocktails I’ve had in a while—especially the Mini Guinness! Prices were reasonable, and the service was fast even when it got busy. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to. Highly recommend for a fun night out! Love the people!🥰

During my recent visit to Jasper on holiday from the UK, I had a couple of beers and a most convivial evening with some of the regulars, who welcomed me warmly. It enabled me also to show solidarity with and remember those Canadian soldiers who served with my grandfather during the Great War. My pic was taken the following day when English weather had caught up with me.

We traveled through Jasper on our way to Prince George, August 28th. We stumbled upon the Legion by accident. We discovered they had a dog friendly patio and we were sold. Su greeted us with a grand smile, brought a large bucket of water for the dog right away. On our return trip September 2, headed straight to the legion for lunch. We were greeted by a lovely woman (I didn’t get her name). We asked if Su was in so we could say hi. She came out with dog treats and that same smile. She greeted us as long lost friends. This is an exceptional place to go! Minors accepted until 8 pm.

A great hidden gem in Jasper! I heard there was a legion in town but never expected it to be open for lunch on a weekend. The service was great and the food was tasty, typical pub fare. They seem to have a great live music scene there so it would definitely be worth checking out when a show is playing. It’s cheaper than most other Jasper restaurants and you get to support a local legion, support our vets!

Day 5

Keep it simple
For day 5, these 3 places should be enough to fill your day with something exciting to do in Jasper National Park. Start the day with Miette Hot Springs and make your way through the city to get to Medicine Lake. This should take about 8 hours of your day.

Spa
Swimming pool
Nestled in the Canadian Rockies within Jasper National Park, Miette Hot Springs offers a rejuvenating experience with its al fresco pools filled with 104ºF spring water. The springs boast higher mineral concentrations compared to others in the area, making them excellent for skin and overall health. After a scenic 20-minute drive from the park's eastern gates, visitors can unwind in two hot pools and two cool plunge pools while enjoying breathtaking views of Fiddle Valley.
Loved it here! The hot springs feel amazing after a hike, and the mountain views around you make it even better. The drive up is gorgeous too - we even spotted some wildlife on the way. It does get busy, but if you come on a weekday it’s much quieter. Totally worth the stop.
Daria S — Google review
It is a wonderful drive up to the hotsprings. However, I was a little underwhelmed when I first arrived. The office area is tiny and the bathroom for people not yet in the hotspring is outside (but under a roof) which is brutal if it's windy and raining! The prices are reasonable and the scenery is amazing! There was no line up too get in on Sept 25th. One of the pools is shallower and cooler and the deeper and warmer. Cozy up to a jet for warmer temperatures.
Matt L — Google review
Miette never disappoints...between the jaw dropping views & the choice of pools, there's something for everyone. The lifeguards were friendly. The change rooms were clean. The bathing suit "dryer" was a cool addition. Worth the stunning 15km drive up the mountain...
MJWillick — Google review
We had a mixed experience here. The pool itself is unremarkable and the pool staff's eagerness to manufacture serenity in an already serene environment made it an uncomfortable experience for our family with young, and objectively reasonably behaved, children. I understand where they're coming from, but the experience left a bad taste. It almost felt like our family was being picked on, even though there were only a few people there when we visited and no one complained about kids moving around, quietly, in the pool. The very fact that they were not sitted still like adults somehow meant they were ruining the experience for everyone. I understand the need to create a good experience for guests, but not at the expense of families with young children who paid the same as everyone else to be there. I'd give 2 stars at most for the pool experience itself. That said, the pool is the least remarkable of the Miette experience. The half hour drive up there is spectacular, the views magnificent, and the short walk to the ruins of the old pool and the hot spring source (it's a small trickle draining down a gutter at the very end of the trail) makes the trip well worth it. For those who couldn't care less about a slightly warm pool in the middle of the mountains, I recommend walking to the hot spring source and back and hiking the Sulphur trail (we didn't do that as we had children with us). The old ruins of the original pool is also a nice piece of history. You can still see some of the features of the pool including the drains.

It is bit of a drive to get to these springs. The road is under repair in a few places so be careful driving around some of those turns. I felt that the water was hotter the last time we went here but it was still good. There was no strong smell of sulphur like at Banff. It was busy so it proves it is good.

First time ever experiencing hot spring and its “wow” to me. The place itself really wonderful. It has 4 pool with a different temperature from cold to hot one whichever do you prefer. Staff were extremely friendly. Such a great place to relax and unwind. Stress free. Ou can also explore hiking at mountains after.

Amazing experience at Mitte Hot Springs! I had an unforgettable time at Mitte Hot Springs! The nature is simply stunning - surrounded by peaceful nature and crystal clear hot springs. Ticket price is $17.50, towel is an additional $2.50 if you don't bring your own. Large parking lot. The water was the perfect temperature and incredibly relaxing. Everything was very clean and well maintained and the staff was friendly and helpful throughout our visit. It's the perfect place to relax, recharge and enjoy the beauty of nature. I highly recommend this hidden gem to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway. Can't wait to go back!

This was my first hot spring experience in Alberta and it was wonderful! I really like that Miette Hot Springs has been upgraded into a pool — it’s clean, comfortable, and easy to enjoy. The water was so relaxing after a day of exploring, and the mountain views made it even better. I’d recommend it for families or anyone looking to relax, and I’m excited to return with my family next summer.

Hiking Trails
Sulphur Skyline Trail is a signature hike in Jasper National Park, offering a challenging yet rewarding experience. The trail begins near Miette Hot Springs and leads hikers through a forested area with steep switchbacks before reaching the tree line. As you ascend, the panoramic views become more expansive until you reach the ridge-line summit. On the descent, hikers can look forward to soaking in the rejuvenating Miette Hot Springs at the trailhead.
Definitely a tough climb but there was a wide range of folks on the trail, kids all the way to seniors, so you can do it! The panoramic view at the top is so worth it.

What a beautiful trail. Here's the info and experience I couldn't find out before arriving. It is a gradual constant ascent, which actually makes it quite easy. Took us (my wife and I, plus our 4 year old boy and 7 year old girl) a little under 2 hours up, and 1 hour back down. Was well worth it. Not scary, no cliffs or drop offs, just a well traveled constant ascent.
Robert C — Google review
The climb to the top is quite difficult, especially the last 400 meters. The trail runs through the forest, which protects you from the sun, which is comfortable when the weather is hot, and has the appearance of a serpentine. Also, along the way, there are wonderful views of the mountains, you can breathe in the fresh forest air, there are several natural benches for rest. The road took 2 hours to climb and 1 hour 20 minutes to descend, but I was in no hurry, so it all depends on your pace. The view at the top is incredible! I was there on a sunny and windless day and the visibility was very good! The Surphur Skyline Trail is an incredible route with spectacular mountain and valley views. The hike, while challenging, is rewarding with fantastic views and hot springs at the finish. Perfect for those looking for adventure and nature at its best!
Anatoliy — Google review
This trail is a fantastic adventure for hikers of all ages. It lifts you out of the valley and delivers jaw-dropping views that make every step worth it. As you near the top, brace yourself—the last 400 meters are a bit of a scramble, but the payoff is incredible. Heads-up: it can get pretty windy at the summit, so don’t forget a windbreaker or a cozy layer. You’ll want to hang out and soak in the scenery for a while. Time? Depends who you ask. The posted hiking time is 4–5 hours, but let’s be real: I made it to the top (with photo stops, two water breaks, and a lightning-fast lunch) in under 2 hours—though I’ll admit, I was dragged up. So yes, the timing could use a bit of an update depending on your pace.

It took us 1h30mins up and 1h 15mins down. The walk is under the trees for most of the time and opens up towards the end, where the incline gets more serious. The 360° view is amazing. We saw squirrels at the top (often confused with chipmunks). Absolutely worth the hike.

Took us 1h45 return instead of the 4/5h written at the start. We saw chipmunks on top, rabbits on the way down, wild goats in the parking before we started and a black bear on our way back home. What an amazing day! The view at the top is stunning!

Medicine Lake

4.6
(268)
Lake
Nestled at a 7920-ft high elevation in Jasper National Park, Medicine Lake is a stunning destination for outdoor enthusiasts. This glacial lake, located just south of Jasper town, offers a range of activities including camping, boating, fishing and swimming. The area is teeming with wildlife such as bears, moose and mule deer along its 4.3 mile stretch.
This lake is amazing!! From the views of the forests and mountains to the lake and wetlands, every aspect here met the mark. I loved looking at it from around at different viewpoints, and seeing areas that changed the farther it went. Wildlife was prevalent here as well. This lake is definitely worth visiting and enjoying!

Despite Medicine Lake's low water level in mid-May, our visit was excellent. We still enjoyed the views of this majestic lake and its unique surroundings.
