Canada
First trip to Jasper National Park
A few lakes, waterfalls, cute souvenir shops and bears. Jasper National Park has a lot to offer!
A stop at Moose Lake
On our way to Jasper, we had a quick stop at Moose Lake. If you're lucky (we weren't) you could see a moose.
Visit to Jasper
Jasper is a cute little town, perfect to shop for some souvenirs (you can find some more authentic and non cliché stuff) and to grab something to eat. We ate breakfast at Papa George's Restaurant, which I would definitely recommend.
Kajacking at Pyramid Lake
Pyramid Lake is nestled at the base of Pyramid Mountain. There are various hiking trails and you can also walk to Pyramid Island. We'd also rented a kayak and spent an hour having fun on the lake.
The Athabasca Falls
The Athabasca Falls are a must-see when in Jasper National park. They are quite impressive. Make sure to not only have a look at the waterfalls and then turn around again, but do the short hike down to the river.
Drive to the Mount Edith Cavell Parking Lot - only for cars, not for campers
Mount Edith Cavell
We did the Path of the Glacier trail, a short, moderate trail to the north side of Mount Edith Cavell, across a rocky landscape. You arrive at a viewpoint overlooking Cavell Pond and the layered ice of Cavell Glacier.
