This is arguably one of the best hikes in Jasper, but at nearly 50km, it’s best done as an ultra trail run or multiday backpacking trip. On top of that, it’s a point-to-point trek, so it requires some planning.

It’s a breathtaking trail that crosses over several mountain passes and stays at an elevation from Maligne Lake to the Maligne Canyon. The views are surreal, and there is little wonder why this is a world-famous backcountry trip.

The views and landscapes along this trail are a sight to behold, and you’re likely to find plenty of space on the trail.
