Hotel overview

The Forest Park Hotel is situated at the northern end of Jasper, offering a range of guest accommodation with views of the forested hills that surround the town.

The rooms are comfortable, with tea- and coffee-making facilities, a small fridge, and a flat-screen television. The property also offers a great range of leisure facilities, including an indulgent day spa, an indoor heated pool, a Jacuzzi, and a steam room. The alpine-style building is set around a leafy atrium, where you’ll find Walter’s Dining Room, which serves a hearty breakfast, and Hearthstone Lounge, which offers a range of creative Canadian specialities.

Excursion

Scenic Float-Trip on the Athabasca River

Enjoy the remarkable scenery of the Athabasca Valley, near Jasper, and learn about the festinating history of this designated Canadian Heritage River on this delightful float trip. Using specially designed oar-powered rafts, your guide will steer you along the same route that fur traders would have used two centuries ago. You will navigate several easy sets of rapids and gently float along the calm stretches in between, keeping an eye for wildlife along the banks – elk, mountain sheep and deer are frequently seen, and sometime bears and coyotes are also spotted. This is a relaxing trip designed for the whole family, and takes about two and a half hours from start to finish.

Excursion

Nature Tour to Maligne Lake

This fantastic five hour tour takes you to the most scenic spots around Jasper. You first head to Maligne Canyon where you take a walk along the side of the deep gorge to view the impressive falls and Maligne River as it thunders below. From here you continue to the mysteriously disappearing Medicine Lake and then on to Maligne Lake when you join a one-and-a-half hour interpretive boat cruise. Afterwards you will have time to relax with a cuppa in the lakeside café before returning to Jasper. If you would prefer not to join the cruise you have the option to go for a guided walk along the shoreline instead.

Excursion

Skeena Rail Journey

The Skeena train winds its way over two days through some remarkable scenery between Prince Rupert on the west coast to Jasper in the Rocky Mountains, broken up by an overnight stop in Prince George. The section between Prince Rupert and Prince George passes along the beautiful Skeena River valley, up in to the rugged expanse of interior British Columbia. From Prince George the train makes its way in to the foothills of the Rockies, winding through the Yellowhead Pass on the border of British Columbia and Alberta, and on to Jasper. Whichever direction you choose to journey in expect diverse and beautiful landscapes studded with lakes, forest clad hills, braided river valleys and tiny settlements. Economy class offers comfortable seating in a regular carriage with large picture windows; light meals and snacks can be purchased at the on-board café/bar. Whilst this is the ‘budget’ option it is also the class in which many locals travel so this can often be a good way to get talking to some of the people who live in these more remote parts of the province. Touring class, which is only available on certain departures in the summer months, offers seating with extra-large panoramic windows, access to the Park dome car with its glass ceiling and a complimentary selection of hot and cold meals. Combined with the Inside Passage ferry the Skeena is a brilliant way to travel around this middle section of British Columbia without having the drive the enormous distances.

Excursion

Icefields Parkway & Bow Valley Parkway - self-drive ideas

The Icefields Parkway is a scenic road that links Lake Louise at the southern end to Jasper at the northern end, taking you through the heart of the Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks World Heritage Site. Here, you will find a simply breathtaking landscape — soaring mountain peaks in every direction, gushing ice-fed rivers, sparkling turquoise lakes, and majestic glaciers. The route extends to Banff via the Bow Valley Parkway, which runs parallel to the faster-moving Highway 1, and the two parkways combined are considered one of the most beautiful drives in Canada. There are many scenic spots and points of interest along the way, so make sure you allow time for the following: Athabasca Falls: about 30 kilometres south of Jasper, these impressive falls can be seen from various viewing platforms and walking trails. Sunwapta Falls: just slightly further south than Athabasca Falls, these falls have a drop of around 18 metres and are at their most impressive in spring and summer when the snowmelt is at its peak. Big Hill and Big Bend: tucked into a hairpin bend, this spot offers a fantastic view of the Athabasca River valley and the towering mountains on either side. Peyto Lake: a striking turquoise, glacier-fed lake nestled amongst the peaks. It is accessed by a short, uphill walking trail to Bow Summit, the highest point on the Icefields Parkway. Bow Lake: another sparkling lake, overlooked by Crowfoot Mountain and Mount Thompson, and a great place to view the Crowfoot and Bow Glaciers. Athabasca Glacier: Where you can hike to the Toe of the Glacier for a closer look. Glacier Skywalk: Not for the faint-hearted, as it is a glass-floored platform that extends over the Sunwapta Valley, but the reward is stunning views of the glacier, mountains, and surrounding wilderness.
