Family-Friendly Activities Near Jasper East Cabins
Explore Jasper National Park
One of the biggest draws of staying at our cabin rentals is the proximity to Jasper National Park. Spend a day hiking the well-maintained trails suitable for all skill levels. Family-friendly hikes, such as the easy Maligne Canyon loop or the scenic Pyramid Lake trail, offer stunning views and opportunities to spot wildlife.
Wildlife Viewing
Jasper National Park is renowned for its diverse wildlife. Take a family road trip through the park, keeping an eye out for elk, deer, bears, and mountain goats. The evening hours are particularly fruitful for spotting animals, as they tend to be more active at that time. Be sure to bring binoculars for a closer look, and educate your kids about the importance of respecting nature and wildlife habitats.
Visit the Jasper SkyTram
For families seeking a little excitement, the Jasper SkyTram is a must-visit attraction. This aerial tramway takes you up to the summit of Whistlers Mountain, offering unparalleled views of the stunning landscape below. Once at the top, your family can enjoy a picnic while overlooking the entire Jasper area or take part in one of the ranger-led programs.
Canoeing on Maligne Lake
Nothing says summer quite like a family canoe trip! Maligne Lake, one of the park's crown jewels, is perfect for a day of paddling. Rent canoes or kayaks and glide across the serene waters while enjoying the surrounding mountain scenery. For an added treat, consider a guided tour to Spirit Island, a picturesque spot that is often featured in photographs of Jasper.
Stargazing
As dusk settles in, take the time to appreciate the spectacular night sky above Jasper. As one of the world’s largest dark sky preserves, Jasper National Park offers unparalleled stargazing opportunities. Plan a family night outdoors! Bring along blankets and hot chocolate, settle in at a vantage point, and gaze at the stars. Use a stargazing app to identify constellations and planets, and maybe even catch a shooting star.
