HIKING |
| Great hiking only a step away Walking is one of the best ways to get a real feel for the mountain region, enjoy great views and hopefully see some wildlife in its natural habitat. There is a variety of hikes available but be sure to check the distance and degree of difficulty before you set out. And always carry the appropriate gear. "Good footwear is most important and you have to dress for the conditions" says Jasper Nature Experience guide Cleone Todgham. "Layered clothing is a good idea because it can be a lot cooler at higher elevations." You should also make sure your day pack contains sunglasses, sun screen, a hat, a first aid kit and water before you set out. We recommend registering with Parks Canada. "A lot of people are afraid to register, but even a twisted ankle can have you out overnight." Checking with the Parks Canada trail information office at the visitor information centre for up to date trail conditions and maps is also a good idea. Hikers can choose from day hikes (some take only a hour or so) or overnight trips. Explore Jasper is surfing the net to bring you the best link to stories and trail descriptions.
