Maligne Lake Road

Maligne Lake is a spectacular lake in the Canadian Rockies not far from the town of Jasper. Set in a broad valley and surrounded by the glistening, snow-capped peaks of the Rockies, the lake is 22km long and is a haven for hikers and fishing enthusiasts. One of the most photographed spots in Canada, Spirit Island, is located in Maligne Lake and can be accessed in the spring and summer months via regular boat tours. From here, there’s a breathtaking vista of the lake, the mountains and three glaciers.

Maligne Lake can easily be reached from Jasper by car along a very scenic road that winds past massive mountains, turquoise lakes and mile after mile of conifer forests.
