Jasper National Park
The best hike in Jasper National Park

Towering at 3363 metres, Mount Edith Cavell is a stunning icon of Jasper National Park, renowned for its awe-inspiring views. You can choose from two hiking trails that both start at the end of Cavell Road. Glacier Trail is an easy 1,2 kilometres return hike that leads to the turquoise Cavell Pond and offers a close-up view of Angel Glacier. Cavell Meadows Trail is a moderately steep trail of 7 kilometres that leads through a forest to a lush alpine meadow and sweeping mountain views. I recommend combining the two trails, starting with the Glacier Trail. The entire loop is about 8-9 km, making it a solid half-day adventure. Pairing these trails gives you the best of both worlds: close-up glacier views and panoramic alpine beauty. It’s the ultimate Jasper experience.
