Highlights

  • Experience Jasper's best opportunity to see wildlife
  • Enjoy a 90-minute cruise on Maligne Lake
  • Look for bears, elk, moose and many more animals
  • Stroll around the upper reaches of Maligne Canyon
  • Learn why Medicine Lake is disappearing

Full description

Following a pick-up from your accommodation in Jasper, climb aboard a 21-seat tour bus for a comfortable drive up the valley. Your first stop will be at Maligne Canyon. Enjoy an easy 30-minute walk and see the deepest portion at 164 feet, including a thundering waterfall.

Re-board your bus and drive on through stunning landscapes en route to Medicine Lake. Here the tour will make a 10-minute stop for photos, and your guide will explain why this is known locally as the "disappearing lake."

Continue on to Maligne Lake and take a 90-minute scenic cruise to Spirit Island. Throughout the day, look out for Canada’s famous wildlife, such as abundant moose, the odd black bear, and even a grizzly.

Important Note - Maligne Canyon Waterfalls: Due to wildfire damage, Maligne Canyon is currently closed by Parks Canada for repairs to ensure visitor safety. If not reopen before your tour date, the Waterfall viewing will not be possible. In this case, the itinerary will be altered, with alternative stops including a visit to Maligne Lookout - you'll get a high vantage view of the changed landscape, & spend extra time on a lakeshore walk at Medicine Lake with stunning views of its commanding limestone cliffs. The Maligne Lake portion of the tour along with the tour length & price remain unchanged & the experience still provides incredible opportunities to explore & learn about Maligne Valley’s natural wonders.

Christian – GermanyAugust 4, 2024 – Verified booking
The tour was really good. The guide gave us a lot of good information about the area, history and answered all the question. He was really polite and had also some good jokes. Note for parents with a toddler/new born: The tour is without a lot of walking and an air-conditioned shuttle. But be aware that there are not so much breaks especially if they need time to move around.
