Whistlers Mountain
The hiking trail to this peak can be access from the old hostel or take the skytram. You can decide if you want to hike up and down both ways. You have an option to buy a ticket from the upper terminal after your hike.
This hike has wonderful views once you reach the alpine. On a clear day, you can spot Mt. Robson. A view of Jasper townsite and all the surrounding lakes in vibrant colors.
Fairly steep elevation gain to the top terminal of the Jasper Tramway. This route is recommended after the snow has disappeared. If you ever hiked in iso thermal snow, you will know what I am talking about. I also recommend that this trip starts from the bottom and hike up instead of the top of the terminal. It will be better for your knees.
