Set high expectations for your next field trip! The Jasper SkyTram proves an excellent field trip with three different ecological zones and biodiversity of plants and animals. Students will be actively involved in the learning experience as soon as they step foot in the tram cabins. As the tram soars towards the upper station a guide will provide information about the surrounding river systems and mountain ranges. Once at the top, teachers are free to lead their students on an exploration of the 1.2km alpine summit trail and take in the amazing views of the Canadian Rockies from an elevation of 2,500 metres.

Description
After boarding the longest and highest guided aerial tramway in Canada, prepare to be amazed as you gain a brand new perspective of Jasper’s stunning National Park.
Your seven minute flight aboard the Jasper SkyTram will take you to an altitude of 2277 metres (7472 ft) and into a whole new world. Along the way, your fully trained and knowledgeable flight attendant will be on hand to point out the many sights and answer your questions.
As your SkyTram gently touches down at the high alpine Upper Station, step out into a mountain top experience that everyone will cherish. With endless views of six mountain ranges, glacially fed lakes, rivers and of course the mountain town of Jasper.
A flight on the Jasper SkyTram will truly heighten your senses.
