The Most Beautiful Lakes of Jasper National Park

Start your trip by stopping by at the tourism office where you can get a lot of information about the parks that you are going to visit. You can pick up brochures and maps here for more details and information. You can also purchase your park pass that you need to have to visit the parks. You can also buy it online and get more information on their website.

After the tourism office, head to this museum where you can learn about Jasper national park history. You will find out about early exploration in the national park and the beginning of tourism over here. There are also explorations about the fur trade and the railway. It is also a great place to visit on rainy days. But if the weather is splendid, you might want to head directly to the lakes and enjoy the nature.
Open hours Monday - Sunday 10:00 - 17:00.

Jasper national park has so many beautiful lakes. In the morning you can explore the lakes on the West side of the river and on the afternoon, the lakes on the East side of the river after having lunch in town. Patricia Lake is only 10 minutes drive from town. You can enjoy the beautiful views and walk around.

Then head to Pyramid Lake, which has the particularity of having of having a small island in the middle called Pyramid island. There is actually a pathway that reaches the island so you can explore it. In Summer, weddings are celebrated on this island. So if you get lucky enough like me to get there just when a wedding is celebrated, it will make your experience more memorable.

After visiting these two beautiful lakes, head back to town to have lunch. Here, the food is fresh and you can get some exotic local meats.
Open hours Monday - Sunday 8:00 - 22:00. You can book a table and check their website for more information.

Lake Beauvert is the most spectacular one for me. You can walk around and you will be able to explore some local fauna and flora. There are usually some cute ducks enjoying the waters over here. You can also do some canoeing on the lake for example. It is a very nice lake to enjoy for sure.

Lake Edith and Lake Annette are right next to each other so the best way is to park your car in between on the parking lot and go explore these two lakes on foot. You can hike all around Lake Annette as it's pretty small and you can also enjoy the small beach. And then, you can go for a walk along Edith Lake for beautiful views. Or you can do it the other way around.

Have dinner at Jasper Brewing Company. If you like beer, it is the best place to be as they brew their own craft beers, and they are very good. I really liked the burger and the fries are delicious.
Open hours Monday - Sunday 11:30 - 00:00. They don't take reservations but you can check the menu on the website.

You can rest at your hotel. You will be here for two nights for easier exploring of Jasper National Park. Maligne Lodge is located pretty close to the city center so you can come here first and leave your car before dinner so you can enjoy the beers without driving back. I really liked the pool and especially the jacuzzi. It is never too hot at night in the Rocky Mountains and after a big day of exploring, the jacuzzi is an amazing way to relax.
