A small island of trees surrounded by cold teal-blue water that becomes Sunwapta Falls, Jasper National Park

"Extending over 11,000 square kilometres, it's the largest national park in the Canadian Rockies and part of UNESCO's Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks World Heritage Site.

Find your connection to this special place by discovering one or all of our five spectacular regions, exploring our extensive trail network, or visiting our famous red chair locations. (Hint: the winter months are pretty spectacular!)"

The Majesty Of Athabasca Glacier, Jasper National Park, Canada

A view of the white ice and snow of Athabasca Glacier with clouds above, Jasper National Park, Canada

"The Athabasca is the most-visited glacier on the North American continent. Situated across from the Icefield Centre, its ice is in continuous motion, creeping forward at the rate of several centimeters per day. Spilling from the Columbia Icefield over three giant bedrock steps, the glacier flows down the valley like a frozen, slow-moving river. Because of a warming climate, the Athabasca Glacier has been receding or melting for the last 125 years.
