Jasper and Jasper National Park

Canadian Rockies Photography by John E. Marriott

Jasper, Alberta - Jasper National Park, established in 1907, is home to sweeping mountain views, spectacular glacial fields, unspoiled lake shores and an array of native wildlife. Jasper is Canada´s largest national park covering 10,878 sq kilometers of Canadian Rockies wilderness.

Jasper has preserved its untamed nature with an outstanding network of backcountry trails and untouched wilderness trekking. The world renowned Columbia Icefields are located in Jasper National Park and are among the few icefields in the world that are accessible by road.

Visitors flock to Jasper each year to see native wildlife viewing of some of North America´s rarest animals. On a given day, you may see grizzly bears, moose, caribou and wolves roaming the rugged backcountry of Jasper. Even as the wildest of the Canadian Rockies parks, Jasper hosts world-class hotels and accommodations as well as dining facilities. Jasper National Park is the perfect combination of wilderness recreational activities paired with the comforts of resort living.
