Amazing natural creation

Jasper National Park is a national park in Alberta, Canada. It is the largest national park within Alberta's Rocky Mountains spanning 11,000 km2. Its location is north of Banff National Park and west of Edmonton. The park contains the glaciers of the Columbia Icefield, springs, lakes, waterfalls and mountains. #urbanexplorer #hiking #nationalpark #canadatravel #scenicspot #naturalwonders #nationalpark

Humans hold funerals for the demise of the glaciers. To the Jasper National Park in the Rocky Mountains, be sure to take a look at the angelic glacier shaped like a wing. There is a beautiful blue-green small lake under the glacier. There is still a lot of ice floes in July, and the sunset is drunk with the calm water. The Angel Glacier is one of the fastest disappearing glaciers in the Rocky Mountains. With global warming, one day you will never see the wings of the two-winged angel again.

A Five-Day Deep Tour of the Canadian Rockies - Banff National Park

As spring ends and summer begins, the Rockies are about to welcome their most glorious moments❤. The emerald lakes reflect the layers of distant mountains. In the early morning, you can wait for the 'golden sunrise' at Moraine Lake, where the sun's rays on the lake surface make it hard to tell if it's reality or a dream🙈. Starting June 2nd, boat tours will be available on Lake Louise, where you can enjoy a gentle breeze on your face while boating in the heart of the lake🚣‍♂️. And there's the Tiffany blue💎 Lake Louise, sitting by the window of the Fairmont Hotel, it's simply wonderful.

Take the cable car to the top of Banff National Park and enjoy a panoramic view of the mountains, where the blue sky and white clouds seem within reach. Overlooking the entire Rocky Mountain range, surrounded by the sun and moon, as well as the mountains and rivers, this is probably the essence of traveling. Starting in 2023, private cars are no longer allowed to enter Moraine Lake, so friends who want to drive themselves need to book a bus in advance. Or you can join our tour group, so you don't have to make the reservation yourself. ⛳️Product Features: ❌Refuse long-distance cross-province driving, ✅Visit three major national parks in one go, covering all classic attractions for a deep experience ✅Enter and exit through the same card, staying in hotels within the scenic area throughout the journey. ✅Rich activity experience, immersive in the beauty of the Rockies.

Fairmont Hotel | A stunning hotel in the Rocky Mountains

Rocky Mountain travel is an unforgettable memory. Accompanied by this beautiful scenery are three Fairmont hotels during the trip, each with its own characteristics, enough to satisfy your expectations for the Rocky Mountains travel. 1. Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel This is the first Fairmont hotel we stayed at during our Rocky Mountain trip. We arrived at the hotel in the afternoon and after checking in, we went to explore the town. The sunset reflected on the small river, creating a peaceful atmosphere. ●The Banff Springs Castle Hotel, built in 1888, follows the luxurious castle style of Scotland, with a magnificent and elegant aristocratic atmosphere. Here, you can fully enjoy the eternal beauty and luxurious comfort of the mountains and the wilderness. For a century, it has received heads of state and famous actors from all over the world, and served as a filming location for Marilyn Monroe's "The River of No Return". It was also chosen by the Canadian government as a national historic site in 1922 for witnessing the development of national parks. 2. Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise ●The Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise was named one of the "Top 10 Most Beautiful Hotels in the World" by the famous American financial magazine Forbes in 2011. This Canadian "national treasure" is the only "world-class hotel" standing on the shore of Lake Louise, stunning every visitor who comes for its classic Victorian architecture and luxurious interior decoration. 3. Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge, also known as Jasper's Rustic Retreat Take a morning stroll by the lake at the resort, and you can feel the ultimate tranquility. The reflection of the snow-capped mountains in the lake is clear, and the fish swim freely in the water. At that moment, the air is fresh and the mood is comfortable. ●Although the reputation of Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge is not as well-known as the previous two, it is still a beloved place for two generations of the British royal family. Jasper Resort is a wooden cabin resort, with each small cabin hidden among lush forests, ranging from low-key and cozy cedar cabins to luxurious wooden cabins. Some cabins face the exclusive Bowat Lake for hotel guests, like a hidden world of elves.

Today, I recommend Jasper to everyone, a place you will want to visit again and again. When we arrived, it was already evening and we checked into Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge. An unexpected surprise awaited us the next morning. Early morning, strolling, ultimate quietness - the reflection of the snow-capped mountains, fish swimming freely, and brightly colored small boats. When I wrote this paragraph, I stopped for a while, not sure if I was recalling the beautiful scenery or feeling the state of mind.

The three Fairmont hotels in the Rocky Mountains add color to your Canadian journey!

Banff is the first stop on a self-driving tour of the Rocky Mountains, with blue skies and white clouds, it really is peaceful and comfortable. Looking out from the hotel window, the green mountain tops, dotted with a bit of white snow, are picturesque! The Fairmont hotel at Lake Louise is another sight to behold, everyone marvels at the stunning window view, and it's also nice to walk around outside, with the lake reflecting the snow-capped mountains, a different kind of scenery! The Fairmont in Jasper is a resort hotel, with beautiful lakes and mountains, and even the little houses are beautiful! Definitely worth experiencing if you have the chance!

Walking on a trail path along the river valley and the waterfall, you can find a good angle to enjoy and shoot the waterfall. The river is clear and transparent, icy and biting, and some rivers are calm and calm, and some rivers are rushing, and the river passes over the bare rocks, causing layers of waves. At the height of 25 meters, the Athabasca Falls are not too big, but because the river is narrow, the water flow is large, the flow rate is fast, the waterfall is rolling rapidly, and the water flowing down makes the mist rise. This is a classroom of natural philosophy. A small drop of water can roar like it can be gathered together. It can be shredded to block hard rock. Don't despise weak forces. Sometimes they can change the world as well. [Ticket Information] If you have bought tickets for Jasper National Park, you dont need to buy tickets for this attraction in one day. [Opening Hours] Open all year round, in case of major natural disasters such as blizzards, Visitors will be notified to close in advance, please pay attention to local weather and official website news. [Traffic information] The most convenient way to drive.

Athabasca Falls picture of Athabasca Falls can also be seen. The drop of Athabasca Falls is not large, but the amount of water is very large, so it is quite spectacular when pouring down. People have not gone yet. When you get to the neighborhood, you can hear a huge sound. But don't think that if you go here, just take a photo of the waterfall and take a photo. There are other scenery worth taking. Go down the sign and enter the Lower canyon through the narrow passage. The entrance to the picture is still wide. The narrower the way, the narrower the distance. There is only one passage to the back, plus rock. Cascading, the photo is pretty good ~ There are also different angles to take a special photo, you can explore it yourself~

It is 2 kilometers long, only 1 meter at the narrowest point, and the Ma Lin Canyon at the deepest point of 55 meters is a deep "crack" embedded in the rock, which is washed by the Ma Lin River day after day. It is different from the magnificent feeling of the Grand Canyon of the United States. The tour route is marked by six bridges over the canyon. The six bridges are not close together. If you want to walk from the 1st bridge to the 6th bridge, it takes half a day. We only walked two bridges and felt the scenery was very general. We gave up the third and fourth bridges, then drove to the sixth bridge, and the scenery was flat. [Ticket Information] If you have bought tickets for Jasper National Park, you don't need to buy tickets for this attraction in one day. [Opening hours] Open all year round, in case of heavy snowstorms, etc. Natural disasters will be notified to visitors in advance, please pay attention to local weather and official website news. [Traffic information] The most convenient way to drive.

This is a typical karst landform. The Ma Lin River flowing out of the upper Ma Lin Lake passes through it. A limestone gorge about 2 kilometers long and curved deep is cut on the limestone. The sides of the gorge are mostly vertical cliffs, and the narrow places are only a few meters wide. Because the drop is very large, the water is rushing, and there are more than a dozen waterfalls. The sound of the whole valley is roaring, which makes people feel terrified. Canyon waterfalls abound in front of the Ma Lin Canyon, typical karst terrain. There is an introduction to the formation of karst landforms at the entrance. It is a must-see for Jasper National Park.
