From mountaintop trails to snowshoeing and stargazing sessions, there’s so much to discover at the Jasper SkyTram. After arriving at the Upper Station, you’ll be greeted by stunning views from our outdoor boardwalk at an elevation of 2,263 metres (7,425 feet), plus opportunities to hike even higher atop the tundra trail network.
Visit us and create your own memories above the clouds.
See Whistlers Mountain in all its winter glory. From March to May (or as conditions allow), rent snowshoes at the Upper Station for a 1.4-kilometre (0.87-mile) trek to the summit. Dress for the weather, strap on your snowshoes and hit the trail — you'll be rewarded with views of six mountain ranges, frozen lakes and a breathtaking aerial perspective of Jasper.
Available as an add-on when you book online or on-site at the Upper Station.
Join the Jasper Planetarium team on select September or October weekend evenings for Star Sessions at the Jasper SkyTram. Soar up Whistlers Mountain and gaze skyward from the Upper Station through powerful telescopes to spot planets, galaxies, constellations and more — all within the world’s second largest Dark Sky Preserve.
More details for 2025 coming soon.
Adventure works up an appetite! Luckily, you have two chances to fuel up at the Jasper SkyTram.
The Summit Café at the Upper Station serves handhelds, poutines, soups and other comfort food favourites. Plus, our mountaintop bar means you can enjoy brews with unbeatable views.
Our Basecamp Café offers sandwiches, light bites, coffee, teas and sweet treats (including ice cream) at the Lower Station. Opening this summer.
Please note: The Summit Café is located on the second level of the Upper Station and is not wheelchair accessible.
Choose your trail and step beyond the boardwalk. Set your course for the summit (1.4 kilometres away) to reach heights of 2,463 metres (8,081 feet) above sea level. Believe us — the view is well worth the climb.
Wildlife is abundant on Whistlers Mountain. During your visit, listen for the hoary marmot’s whistling alert call, watch for the white-tailed ptarmigan and have your cameras at the ready for ground squirrels, pikas and even the occasional mountain goat.
Please note: We ask that all guests respect and help protect Jasper National Park’s beauty. Stay on trails, refrain from removing rocks or vegetation and always keep your distance from wildlife.
While the technology and views may change from season to season, Jasper’s beauty never goes out of style. The Jasper SkyTram opened in the summer of 1964, and we've been fortunate to share these sights with millions of guests since.
