Jasper National Park is stunning all year round, but in my opinion, winter is really when it is most special. The summer crowds have departed, the mountains are snow-capped, and the lakes and waterfalls are now a beautiful blue ice spectacle. There is plenty to do in Jasper during this time as well, and there is truly nothing cozier than cuddling up next to the fire in one of the cabins around town. Here's exactly how we spent four marvelous winter days in Jasper, and how to make the most out of your time here!
