Day 5 – Maligne Lake and Spirit Island
Get your fill at breakfast this morning; today's adventures are
grand! Jasper is surrounded by natural beauty, thanks to Jasper
National Park, and we get a taste of it with our visit to Maligne
Lake. This glacier-fed lake features clear turquoise waters and an
amazing backdrop, with soaring mountain peaks, glaciers, and lush
forests encircling it. We set out onto the lake by boat*, allowing
us to take in all the glory and learn more about the flora and
fauna of the region. Our cruise ventures out to one of the most
photographed locations in Canada, Spirit Island. This land mass is
only a true island for a few days each year, but its cluster of
trees set against the surrounding scenery makes it a breathtaking
sight to behold. Overnight Jasper, AB.
*The first departure of the season will not feature the cruise
to Spirit Island and will instead visit Maligne Canyon, Jasper
National Park's deepest and most interesting canyon, and the shores
of Maligne Lake by deluxe motorcoach.
