About Maligne Lake

With its breathtaking mountain setting and an abundance of wildlife, Maligne Lake surely ranks among the great natural wonders of the world. Tour boats bound for Spirit Island glide across crystal-clear water, adventurous visitors set out in canoes and kayaks for secluded coves, while anglers cast for trophy-sized trout. Hikers head out on well-formed trails leading along the lake to panoramic viewpoints and into the surrounding emerald forest, crossing fast-flowing streams to emerge at picturesque lakes. However you choose to experience the jewel of Jasper National Park, Maligne Lake serves up a veritable feast of memorable experiences.
