Jasper Ski Resort

Canada’s most northernly ski resort, located in Alberta, is also one of its most breathtakingly beautiful. Set amongst the dense forests, frozen lakes and deep valleys of Jasper National Park, the authentic town of Jasper is a 20-minute drive from the Marmot Basin, a superbly varied ski area of chutes, bowls and tree-lined glades.

Jasper is not just somewhere to lay your head at the end of a day’s skiing. It’s a true taste of Canada at its best: a proper frontier town, amidst spectacular scenery, full of friendly faces as well as moose, elk and deer who are as much a part of the community as the people themselves. Non-skiers can enjoy beautiful walks, spying on the wildlife, horse-drawn rides and ice-skating on a frozen lake.
