The Icefields Parkway ends in another world-famous destination “ Jasper National Park. Once seen as an island of civilization in a vast wilderness, Jasper is one of Canada's oldest and largest national parks offering visitors a more laid-back mountain experience. A land full of natural wonders including the disappearing Medicine Lake, one of the largest known sinking rivers in the Western Hemisphere, where the water surfaces again in the area of Maligne Canyon one of the largest inaccessible cave systems in the world! Jasper has an abundance of pristine emerald green lakes; capture the gentle ripples in the water as a canoe glides across Maligne Lake or photograph the serenity and stillness of Pyramid and Patricia Lakes. As the sun sets over the breathtaking scenery of Jasper let your Rocky Mountain Photo Adventures guide show the magic of the night sky in the worlds second largest Dark Sky Preserve.
