Experience Ice Climbing in Jasper

Join us for an unforgettable experience of climbing a frozen waterfall. This fun and thrilling experience lets you explore places that are inaccessible to most park visitors.

This six-hour tour begins at our office in Jasper where you meet your guide and get your gear. We then travel to our climbing site, chosen based on the weather and ice conditions.

Once at the site, your guide coaches you on techniques, safety, and gear. Next? We climb!

  • All technical equipment included (boots, crampons, harnesses, axes, helmet)
  • Wear winter clothing and lots of layers (what you would wear to the ski hill)
  • Transportation is provided from town to the climbing site and back

All trips leave from the Visitor Experience Centre, located at 414 Patricia Street (parking lot adjacent to the Old Fire Hall). We ask participants to be ready to depart at the start time – we want to climb, not sit around the office!

Liability Waiver

  • All guests participating in any activity with Rockaboo Mountain Adventures will be required to read and sign a waiver. Ice climbing involves risk, and the waiver is an important legal document that warrants careful review prior to booking your trip. Your guide will review this waiver upon meeting on the day of your trip – including the associated hazards of the activity and the current mountain conditions.
  • Please review the liability waiver prior to arrival – LINK TO 2025 PDF (under construction) and contact our office if you have any questions.

 

*Winter 2024-25 Update : Maligne Canyon, one of Jasper National Park’s most iconic landmarks, will remain closed for the winter season due to safety concerns following this summer’s wildfire. This decision, based on safety assessments and input from stakeholders, reflects Parks Canada’s unwavering commitment to public and visitor safety.”  

To ensure you have an amazing climbing experience, your guide will choose the location based on current conditions.  If you have a specific climb or location in mind, please contact our office to make arrangements for a private guide.
