4 KM Wildfire Hike with Lunch in Jasper National Park

In July 2024, a massive wildfire ripped through Jasper National Park, ravaging over 33,000 hectares of land. A year later, the 55-million-year-old land, without its canopy of leaves, reveals recovering flora, returning wildlife and a healthy future. On Wildfire Peak-Nic, you will be hiking 4 KM through the severely impacted site of the Complex Wildfire to one of Jasper’s prominent peaks. As your guide leads you through new growth forest emerging from the ash, you will learn to identify various species of plants, wildflowers and mushrooms, learn about history, geology, forestry, wildfires and observe wildlife from a safe distance. Once at the peak, you will take in 360-degree views of the different yet stunning vistas for miles and learn about the roles and benefits of a wildfire over a hot lunch with your guide. Beautiful in its own way, this is one-of-a-kind experience and a unique immersion into the aftermath of the powerful forces of nature.
