Winter camping in Canada

Winter camping in Canada

When thinking of winter sports, one probably first thinks of wooden cabins or hotel rooms with fireplaces. But for the true adventurer, there is now a more suitable alternative: a camper trip and winter sports holiday in one. The town of Jasper is an excellent destination for this. This village in Canada has recently been named the best ski village in North America

Ultimate freedom in Canada

It's not hard to imagine how free it feels to decide where to go on the spot. Besides the village of Jasper, Jasper National Park also has a lot to offer. For example, ice climbing in Maligne Canyon is highly recommended and you shouldn't miss the scenic route of Icefields Parkway. After a whole day on the slopes, you can enjoy a beautiful starry sky in front of your camper in the evening, with your own campfire and a warm drink served from your camper. The entire area is a Dark Sky Preserve, so there is hardly any artificial light to be seen at night. And that is precisely the right condition to spot the northern lights.

Skiing in Marmot Basin

Jasper's history began as a railway town and trading post. The history therefore drips from the facades in the picturesque center. Today, it's no longer about trains and goods, but about nature. The town is located in the heart of Jasper National Park, where skiers and snowboarders can optimally enjoy challenging slopes and the powder snow of Marmot Basin.

Festival city Edmonton in Canada

Before you start your camper trip, you can first explore Edmonton. This capital of the province of Alberta is also known as Canada's festival city. Festivals, events and other fun activities take place here all year round. For example, visit the winter Silver Skate Festival or the gigantic ice castle of Ice Castles.
