Jasper
Located in the middle of Jasper National Park in Alberta's Rocky Mountains, Jasper's friendly mountain hospitality, peaceful low-key atmosphere, and the promise of adventure will make your visit unforgettable. Famous for the world renowned Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge and its golf course — Jasper is also close to the spectacular Columbia Icefields.
The town of Jasper, Alberta is as famous and beloved as the park itself. Celebrities such as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, John Denver and Bill Gates have all been to Jasper to escape the pressures of their busy lives.
Jasper is alive with adventure at any time of the year! Take a break from the "Great Outdoors" and visit one of our museums, the positively charming library, or the popular Activity Centre. There are several nightclubs and a movie theater for your evening and late-night entertainment.
Jasper's combination of wildlife, startlingly blue-green mountain lakes, soaring peaks and broad forested valleys ranks it as one of the world's premiere national parks. The park's distance from large urban centres and its relatively intact ecology create a special sense of "early days in the Rockies." Today, over 3 million pass through the gates and more than 1.8 million people a year visit the park to experience this unique wilderness and World Heritage Site.
