Jasper

The charming alpine village of Jasper reels you in with its spectacular backdrop. Emerging from the flatlands of the Prairies, the Canadian Rockies tower over five national parks, including Jasper's. Here, snow-capped summits dominate giant glaciers, frosted ice fields, rushing waterfalls and forest-rimmed lakes. Watch out for Canada's wildest locals: bears, moose and wolves hide amid the wonders.
