The magnificent scenery of the Canadian Rockies and Jasper National Park surrounds you while you float gently (sometimes) down the river.

Perfect for seasoned rafters as well as families whitewater rafting through Jasper is not to be missed if you find yourself in the park between May and September.

Jasper has countless rock climbing and mountaineering areas, without the crowds of Banff and Canmore. Rock climbing and mountaineering are accessible March through October, with ice climbing taking over on the off months. The rocks are predominantly limestone and quartzite, offering bouldering, belaying and free solo climbing. Many routes are discovered and fine-tuned every year making Jasper a true mountaineer's paradise.

Each round of golf at the Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge Golf Course takes you on an exquisite journey through a stunning mountain backdrop. Designed by Stanley Thompson, The Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge is truly one of Canada's best and most secluded golf courses. Rated by SCOREgolf as not only the best resort golf course but also the second-rated public golf course in the entire country. The 18-hole layout offers elevated tee boxes, dramatic bunkering and holes aligned with distant mountain vistas and as a result, few golf courses in the world can match the rugged majesty of this national treasure. Booking in advance is recommended but the hotel also offers day-of tee offs so if you fancy a day out on the links, The Fairmont is definitely the place to go.
