For
over 70 years no trip to the Canadian Rockies has been complete
without a cruise to Spirit Island on Maligne Lake in Jasper
National Park.
This diminutive
Canadian icon, floating amid turquoise, glacial waters is accessed
via glass enclosed and heated boats.
The 90
minute interpretive tours depart every hour on the hour throughout
the summer season and are staffed by recognized Heritage Tourism
Guides and Ministry of Transport licensed Pilots.
Learn of
the local history, geology, wildlife and glaciology of Maligne
Lake and of Jasper National Park as some of the most spectacular
scenery in the Rockies drift past your window.
At Spirit
Island the boat lands to allow for a short walk to the viewpoint
overlooking the mountain ringed southern shores of Maligne Lake;
the equally famous backdrop of Spirit Island.
