Spirit Island is a tiny, picturesque island located on Maligne Lake in Jasper National Park, Canada. Surrounded by towering mountains and crystal-clear waters, this iconic spot is super famous. Accessible only by boat, the journey to Spirit Island is long way but the views are incredible. You can do a canoe trip out here and stay the night, but backcountry permits sell out quickly. If you can't get a camping permit you can do a day trip but it is a 14km paddle each way so you need to prepare. There are also daily boat excursions from Maligne Lake. You can usually book the same day, but if you know your date book in advance! I have linked the tour!
