visited in winter. it is just a short drive outside of Jasper, there is a motel, cafe, toilets and lots of car parking, the lake has little boats - that some one has dragged up onto the shore line and they are surrounded in ice - like boats in an ice cube. people were skating, and riding bikes on the lake. such a beautiful spot. you can hire skates there or else bring your own. in summer it would be nice walk to the lake. the trees are affected by the pine beetle and when i was there burning and cleaning was taking place. fun place to take the family on a sunny winter day.

6. The Den - Jasper's Wildlife Museum
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 70 reviews
This museum offers a look at the many animals of Western Canada in their natural habitat.
Reviewed By Linseed3329 - Edmonton, Canada
I've visited the museum about four times now, it's become a bit of a Jasper tradition for me. It's a great little stop to kill half and hour, probably the most affordable thing to do in Jasper at 3 bucks a person. There's definitely a variety of skill level happening for the taxidermy of the animals but the less skilled ones add some fun comedic value. Also a great way to get an up close view of many animals found in the park without the danger of approaching wild animals (please don't do that... Seriously.)
