Valley of Five Lakes

Five little gems, within 10 minute drive of Jasper and each unique and beautiful.

Lakes Edith and Annette - Very easy to find and nice easy walks. Beautiful blue-green spring fed lakes are a joy to see and close to Jasper Park Lodge. Lake Annette features a fully accessible interpretive trail, 1 hour in length. A walk around Lake Edith will afford views of some of the fine homes of those lucky enough to live here. The trail is paved and you may see scuba divers duck-walking into the warmer mountain waters. There are even sandy beaches in front of tourqouise waters that will make you think you are in Hawaii!	Does this sandy beach look like Grand Cayman or Hawaii? Nope, this is the Canadian Rockies ! This lake is a very short drive or walk from the Jasper Park Lodge and only 10 minutes from the town of Jasper.
Lakes Beauvert, Mildred and Trefoil - Jasper Park Lodge is built on Lac Beauvert and quite close to Mildred Lake. Easy walks on Lac Beauvert (trail 4A) will take you through cool forests, around the green lake (Beauvert in French is beautiful green) across a wooden bridge and past the Rocky Mountains best golf course. The Whistlers and Mount Edith Cavell can be seen from several vantage points. The walk brings you back to the trimmed lawns and fabulous cuisine of the Jasper Park Lodge You may see scuba divers in the Five Lakes who come from the prairies to train in the relatively warm and clear mountain lakes. Lake Edith is known to be the warmest.	Wildlife Abounds!
