While not quite into the height of summer temperatures yet, Jasper in June has plenty of summery adventure opportunities. Here's some examples to get those idea wheels turning.
1 Celebrate Father's Day
Happening this year on June 18, Father's Day presents a unique opportunity to either embark on a bonding experience with your dad, or to send him out into the wilderness for some peaceful alone time. From mountain biking to golf to pizza and beer on a patio, show Pops that you appreciate him.
2 Cavell Road re-opens
The Cavell Road is a twisting, turning 14 kilometre route through sub-alpine forests that leads to one of Jasper's finest natural attractions: Mount Edith Cavell. After its usual winter closure, this road will reopen on June 23 (weather permitting) and people will once again be able to discover the majesty of these alpine meadows.

Don't miss this chance to eat drool-worthy food with a side of beautiful mountain views.
