Ski Jasper

Ski Jasper and marvel in one of Canada's most beautiful & idyllic ski resorts. With a small skiing and snowboarding area (Marmot Basin) there's over 80km of skiing amongst trees, lakes and glaciers - real charm!

Where

Ski Jasper in Canada (Alberta) and you're in Canada's most northerly resort. International ski flights come into Edmonton and it's then a 350km drive to the town for your ski holidays to start. There's no accommodation on the pistes, hence the 20 min resort to slope transfer times. The mountains all around provide good skiing as well as boarding, but ski holidays in Jasper are more about being in the wilderness and getting away from the rowdy mainstream resorts.
