Winterscapes, Alberta

This has to
be the number one favorite activity in the Rockies. We have hiking
trails of great beauty for all ages and abilities. Memories that
visitors take home with them are often associated with the easy
walks or treks that carry them to some of the Rockies stunning
scenery. Canyons, waterfalls, rivers and our amazing aqua-colored
lakes are all easily accessible by the best transportation of
all, the foot. Breathe in some fresh
moutain air and work up an appetite for that great Rocky Mountain
cuisine you'll have back in Jasper or Banff! For the elderly there
are many great sights within a few hundred feet of the Icefields
Parkway!

Crawling?
In the late, late fall the Rocky Mountain
canyons and trails transform into another World. Rivers change
into flat walkways, waterfalls become suspended in time, wildlife
changes color and texture. Humans can see a new face
on mother nature. Winter brings amazing changes to the Rockies.
Hike up to waterfalls that have become gigantic curtains of
ice and watch for wildlife in winter coats of fur. It is best
to experience this with a guide such as those provided by
Jasper Adventure Center. |
