Luxury Jasper Holidays
Set in the heart of the Canadian Rocky Mountains, the railway town of Jasper is surrounded by incredible scenery and the abundant wildlife of Jasper National Park. Just twenty five minutes from here is the Marmot Basin with ski slopes to suit all levels of skier and boarder on a variety of terrain, complemented by its legendary dry powder snow. Covering an area of 1,500 acres it offers gentle flats for beginners, wide open cruising runs and alpine bowls for the intermediates, while the more advanced will relish the steep challenge chutes. Jasper is treasured for its unpretentious and laid back ambience- it’s also a little off the beaten track and never gets too crowded.
