Features
Take in the jaw-dropping scenery of four mountain faces as you ski through Jasper National Park, where high-speed lifts whisk your group around the resort. All abilities thrive at Jasper, where skiers love exploring the varied terrain of glade-skiing and open bowls. Beginners have plenty of easy slopes to play with, and improvers can look forward to honing their skills on the wide blues.
Long, stretching reds give intermediates plenty of room to travel, while the experts of your group can test themselves on the area’s most thrilling runs. Snowboarders are also well catered for, and while your group may not be able to take part, they can admire the boarders as they run through their very own free-ride park, table tops, rails, a quarter-pipe, and several back bowls.
