Explore the magnificent Maligne Canyon Ice Walk in Jasper National Park in Alberta Canada! A spectacular winter hike for all to see!
Maligne Canyon is a beautiful sight to see in summer, but perhaps even more spectacular in the winter months. This ice walk along Maligne Canyon's frozen floor is one of Jasper National Park's most popular winter destinations and is a must see for all!
We ventured into the canyon to see its sights and enjoy the wonder of looking up the steep water-carved canyon walls. You can expect to see many frozen waterfalls and ice formations throughout the journey. You'll definitely want a pair of ice spikes/crampons for this hike!
Paid tours are offered for those wanting the experience of a guide taking them through Maligne Canyon, however, you can also enjoy this hike at your own risk without a guide. For some, a guide would be best, especially if you're not comfortable with winter hiking, or are new to the Rock Mountains; avid hikers and "locals" can enjoy this trek with ease and just a bit of common sense.
Maligne Canyon is located in Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada and is only about 15 minutes away from the town of Jasper. Begin the hike at the 5th bridge turnout when driving Maligne Road. The trail is hard to miss!
Make sure you bring your camera, there will be many sights along the way!
