JONAS PASS - BRAZEAU LAKE

"I just wanted to let you know that I had a great time on the hiking trip. The scenes were spectacular, I only have good things to say about how the trip was organized by Ron and how Olivier guided us. I had complete confidence with them. Bennett also did some helping out, and the company with the whole group was great. Thanks again."

Tour Description

Our Jonas Pass - Brazeau Lake Loop Backpacking Tour is likely our most adventurous trip in the Canadian Rockies. It's an exciting hike through a stunning region of Jasper National Park. On this tour we'll explore the headwaters of the Brazeau River and the vast alpine meadows that drape this remote area. "The Loop," as we like to call it, features fascinating natural and cultural history as you hike along ancient trails once used by indigenous people and later by trappers and mountain men. Wildlife viewing opportunities abound as we hike through prime wolf, moose, and elk habitat, and there's even a chance of seeing a rare mountain caribou!

Beginning at Nigel Pass near the Columbia Icefields, we hike along the majestic Brazeau River for two days before climbing up into the high country. Above treeline is an ocean of alpine meadows where herds of mountain caribou graze. After hiking across these meadows, we'll loop back around and end up where we started. Join us on this backpacking tour for a truly outstanding hiking adventure!
