JASPER JASPER SKYTRAM The town of Jasper is in the heart of Jasper National Park. The park’s shimmering glaciers, abundant wildlife, crystal-clear lakes, thundering waterfalls, deep canyons and evergreen forest — all surrounded by towering mountains — are some of the reasons the park was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Jasper SkyTram whisks up Whistler’s Mountain to an elevation of 2,277 metres, showing the stunning vistas over mountain ranges stretching up to 80 kilometres away.
