Rocky Mountain Water | Jasper SkyTram.

I always thought I could take the Banff Sulphur Mountain cable car at any time, so I never went. Just like when I was in Chengdu for more than ten years, I always thought I could go to Jiuzhaigou, but in the end I never went to Jiuzhaigou, the paradise on earth. Cherish the present. I finally understand now. So even if I just pass by Jasper, I still plan to take the cable car, climb Whistler Mountain, and overlook Jasper Town. Jasper SkyTram rises nearly a thousand meters vertically, and after going up, it is Whistler Mountain at 2,263 meters. The entire cable car journey takes about 7 minutes. You can enjoy the magnificent panoramic view of Jasper National Park, including mountains, lakes, valleys, dense forests and winding hundreds of red and green carriages. On a sunny day, I also saw the distant Columbia Icefield and the majestic Rocky Mountains. After arriving at the top station, pass through the top viewing platform and walk along the trail to reach Whistler Peak. The altitude is higher, the road is made of earth and stone, and there is a little challenge, but I also saw a lot of old people and children walking up along the way. Maybe because of the high altitude, I saw big and small stones all the way, and there were some grass and wild flowers in the cracks of the stones. It was not too monotonous to rush down, but it was still recommended to look up more. The surrounding area is dotted with majestic peaks with snow, which is quite beautiful. You can also go up Whistler Peak without taking the cable car. You can walk directly from the foot of the mountain. It is estimated that it will take several hours. You must wear climbing shoes and bring climbing sticks. If you slip and get injured, it will be troublesome. There is no signal on the phone. There is a large area of ​​snow that has not melted near the top of the peak. It is estimated that it will not melt before the winter. You can lie in the snow and take pictures. 📍Scenic spot address: Whistlers Rd, Jasper, AB T0E 1E0 🚗Scenic traffic: self-driving, the parking lot is quite large. 👍️Must-visit attractions: Whistler Peak, Summit Restaurant for a cup of coffee, 360-degree view of Rocky Mountain Snow Peak Valley. 🎟️Ticket related: Adults (16+) $67, teenagers (6-15) $38, free for children under 6, dogs need to buy tickets to go up, $10 per dog. 💗Other tips: It is recommended to book tickets in advance, and the time to go up and down the mountain should be selected. If you want to climb Whistler Peak and dine in the restaurant, there should be at least two hours in between.
