Overview
Day 1 – Pleckaitis Canyon Icewalk & Jasper Foodie Tour: Start your second day with the Pleckaitis Canyon Icewalk in the Maligne Valley — a guided journey through towering canyon walls, frozen waterfalls, and icy caverns. It’s a stunning, accessible way to experience the hidden magic of Jasper’s winter.
Afterward, warm up with the Jasper Foodie Tour — a guided culinary walk through downtown Jasper, where you’ll sample mountain-inspired dishes, meet local chefs, and discover the stories behind the town’s food culture.
Day 2 – Wildlife Tour & Snowshoe Adventure: Begin your adventure with a guided Wildlife Discovery Tour, exploring Jasper’s beautiful valleys in search of native animals like elk, moose, and mountain goats. Learn about Jasper’s ecology and the adaptations that allow its wildlife to thrive through winter.
In the afternoon, lace up for a Snowshoe Adventure. Follow your guide through quiet forest trails and open viewpoints where the snow sparkles under the afternoon sun — an ideal blend of activity and serenity.

Snowshoes are provided. Guests are required to wear warm winter gear. We suggest a winter jacket, snow pants, gloves, winter footwear and warm socks, and a toque or balaclava. In addition, snow goggles are great for sun glare and windier days. The Source for Sports can fit you with a winter jacket and pants. A light backpack is also a good idea to carry your camera, water, and snacks.
