ÉTÉ 2016 À la découverte du parc national Jasper À L’INTÉRIEUR • Nos cinq incontournables • Cartes • Camping • Faune Also available in English • Sécurité Un bon temps pour se rapprocher Chaises rouges au col Wilcox Bienvenue dans le parc national Jasper, le doux géant des Rocheuses canadiennes. Notre ville de montagne décontractée vous offre un accès facile à des pics majestueux, à d’infinies possibilités d’aventures de plein air, à une nature vierge et à une faune abondante. Depuis les Autochtones jusqu’aux premiers commerçants de fourrures, en passant par les cheminots qui installèrent les traverses de deux chemins de fer transcontinentaux, ils sont des millions à avoir exploré ces vallées et ces cols de montagne. La fondation du parc remonte à 1907, année de la création de la réserve forestière Jasper Park. Le parc national Jasper et ses voisins – les parcs nationaux Banff, Yoho et Kootenay ainsi que trois parcs provinciaux – forment le magnifique site du patrimoine mondial des parcs des montagnes Rocheuses canadiennes, un trésor de l’UNESCO. Le parc Jasper abrite aussi la deuxième réserve de ciel étoilé en superficie de la planète : par temps clair, vous pouvez y voir danser des milliards d’étoiles. Revenez en octobre pour le Mois du ciel étoilé et pour notre Festival annuel du ciel étoilé. Rapprochez-vous de ce joyau de notre patrimoine en explorant un ou l’ensemble de nos cinq incontournables, en vous détendant dans nos célèbres chaises rouges ou en participant à des activités et à des programmes dirigés par Parcs Canada. Merci de visiter le parc national Jasper. Si vous comptez y séjourner de nouveau à l’occasion du 150e anniversaire du Canada (et nous espérons bien que vous le ferez), sachez que l’entrée sera gratuite en 2017.
