Enjoy Jasper from afar with these scenic livestreams
To have a great Jasper experience, it’s generally a prerequisite that you be in Jasper. But in a time when that might not be an option for many people, there are still ways to enjoy your favourite mountain town and national park.
What to expect in Jasper this winter
Jasper's wide open spaces will be here when you’re ready. If a visit to Jasper is in your plans, please stay with members of your household, wear a mask and be respectful of the public health restrictions in place. Let’s help keep Jasper safe!
Coming to Jasper? Stay with your household.
Planning to visit Jasper soon? Wonderful. We’re thrilled that we can provide a wide-open, outdoor space for you to explore during these challenging times. But to ensure that we can continue welcoming visitors to our small mountain town, we really need everyone to travel only with members of their own household, especially during the next three weeks.
Marmot Basin ski resort is open! Here’s what to know about the 2020/21 season.
On November 12, one of Canada’s best ski resorts will start welcoming skiers and snowboarders back to Jasper. All the things that people love about Marmot Basin – the lack of lift lines, the crowd-free slopes, the affordability – will remain for the 2020/21 season, but there will be a few COVID-19 compliant changes on the mountain to help keep guests and staff safe.
How to talk like a local: a guide to Jasper slang
The tight-knit community of Jasperites is part of why this corner of the Rockies is so special. Locals are generally helpful and nice and easy to talk to, but like many small towns, a unique lingo has developed over the years. For visitors, some terms can be a bit of a mystery.
How long should you stay in Jasper
Short answer? As long as possible. There are people who have lived here for years and yet still have barely scratched the surface of all there is to do in this mountain wonderland. But if your travels are limited, as they often unfortunately are, by time, money or any of the many other factors that influence our decisions in life, then this guide can help.
