Patricia and Pyramid Lakes - An easy 10 minute drive above Jasper townsite brings you to this great recreational spot. Enjoy the two delightful lakes on the "Pyramid Bench". A 5 kilometre trail loops along Cottonwood sloughs and a small creek before swinging back around. Allow 1.5 hours. Moose, elk, waterfowl (including loons) and beavers are often seen while walking. Birdwatchers can be on the lookout for hummingbirds, warblers, yellowthroats, loons and thrushers. From the shores of Patricia Lake, admire the colors of red-quartzed sandstone in Pyramid Mountain (9,000 ft). Stroll over to the island on Pyramid Lake.

Accommodation is very close as you can stay in the popular lodges across the road from the lake.
