During the month of January we celebrate winter during the annual Jasper in January Festival.

Join a Parks Canada interpreter for these free guided snowshoe activities.

Cameras and collars guided snowshoe

When: 11 am to 1 pm on January 13, 20, and 27

Join a Parks Canada interpreter for a moderate two-hour snowshoe through a winter wonderland and discover how wildlife biologists use technology (cameras and collars) to keep tabs on Jasper’s wildlife.

No snowshoes? No problem! We’ll loan you a pair. Be prepared for the elements, wear warm winter clothing and winter boots. Pack water and snacks.

Please note: In the event that Maligne Lake Road is closed, the activity will be held at Sixth Bridge, 7.5 km east of Jasper via Highway 16 and Maligne Road. Meet in parking lot. The same dates and times apply.
