Charming resort town
Con
Very pricy
In a nutshell
A place you can come and relax with memories to dream
Twan Says: Maligne Lake is a great blue lake with the famous "Spirits Island". Tickets are quite expensive, but the photos are great!
Twan Says: Hiking up here from Jasper the end of the tramway is a bigger climb then you might think. The views are great specially when the sun breaks through.
Twan Says: From maligne lake a river floats down from Maligne Lake, through an impressive canyon. A great place to stop by and hike down.
Twan Says: A lot of animals live in Jasper and surroundings, here are the ones we caught on camera in Jasper.
Twan Says: Great gletsers and astonising views, lakes and waterfalls. A nice road you can do in one day. We did it from Jasper to Banff.
Hanau93 Says: One of the most famous landmarks in Jasper National Park. We took the costly boats tour to Spirit island but it was so worth it..
Twan Says: The village of Jasper is a nice place. A typical winter sport village with nice bars and restaurants. Everything you need when you come down a mountain.

Smitty's Pancake House: No Surprises, but Slow
CdnJane Says: The food was standard to Smitty's - big and filling. I had the bacon lover's bacon & eggs, and it kept me going for the day! My friend had the eggs benedict and said it was alright, not the worst but certainly not the best. Service was slow, we had to ask a couple of times...
Bear Paws Baker: Nice place for lunch - moderate price
807Wheaton Says: We drove into Jasper for lunch before our trip to Maligne Lake. We decided to eat at the Bear Paw Bakery at 4 Cedar Avenue. When we were there, they had a small lunch selection and we each had Tomato Tortellini Soup and split a sandwich. We also purchased a goodie from their...
Via Railway "Canadian" Toronto - Vancouver
PeterVancouver Says: Anyone thinking of taking Via Rail's somewhat expensive 4 day trip across Canada on Via Rail's route #1 "The Canadien" had best be aware that the best part of the trip, ie crossing the Rocky mountains, will be completed in darkness from not long out of Jasper until dawn...
Twan Says: A restored steam locomotive, CN 6015. This one is standing at the rail station of Jasper. What a great view!
Robinson's Grocery: Save $ - Shop at a grocery store
807Wheaton Says: This is a good up-to-date grocery. They had a well stocked deli where we could get just enough potato salad for one meal. While we were there we also bought a steak and some asparagus to fix back at Patricia Lake Bungalows. Alberta is beef country, and Robinsons offers the...
EDELWEISS GIFT SHOP: SOUVENIRS AND MORE
LoriPori Says: One of the many souvenir and gift shops was the EDELWEISS GIFT SHOP. It carried your typical Jasper souvenirs, T-shirts, knick-knacks, Jasper information books, etc. It was a lovely little shop and I had fun browsing through it.

I really like this bear that is named after me!
All children visiting Jasper want to have a picture of the Jasper bear and themselves. This big statue can be found at the Lower Station of the Jasper Tramway. I can tell you that it is very difficult to have a picture made of just myself and the Jasper bear! I think it took us about 10 to 15 minutes before I was all alone with the bear (for 10 seconds only).
I think the bear and I look quite similar. What do you think? Just let me know!

So many people when travelling to Jasper National Park get very excited when they start seeing all these animals walking on the roads & street in the area. They have their own means of getting food so son'd get out of your car & try to start feeding the Elk, Mountain Sheep, or bears. The safest place is in your car. LESS INJURIES.
Don't let others know exactly where you are staying, be it in a B&B or campsite. Things sometimes have a tendency of walking away.

A lot of people take the Jasper Tramway up to the top of Whistlers Mountain, but as it wasn't working when we got there, we decided to walk... 4 hours later we arrived at the top. This view was taken about half-way up.

Veghel Says: Marmot basin is closed in summer time. It is even forbidden to go there (at least by car). I had to park my car about 1 km from the bottom station and walk from there, via a wide tarmac road.Please note that there is really nothing to do at Marmot Basin in summer time. Only...
Hiking from Upper Station of Jasper Tramway
Veghel Says: There are some excellent trails from the Upper Station of the Jasper Tramway to the top of nearby mountains, where you can enjoy phantastic views on the mountains in the surroundings. PLease note that usual (sport) shoes are inadequate for the rocky footpaths. Bring good...
LoriPori Says: Early morning Saturday, June 7, my restless Hansi got up and explored outside the Jasper Inn and was delighted to see some Elk just lazing around and grazing on the grasses nearby. What a treat for him. Hans took some amazing film of the animals and this one here of a Big...
