10. Skyline Trail
The Skyline Trail is what brings many people to Jasper National Park, in Alberta, Canada. The park itself is gorgeous. If you’re looking for some exciting wildlife, like grizzly bears or caribou, the Skyline Trail brings you right into their natural habitat while exploring the mountainous area above the tree line.
The trail can be done in a day, but generally people spend a few days there so they can really soak in the atmosphere. There are some intense sections, but generally the trail is suitable for people who are relatively new to hiking. This trail is also a great introduction to backcountry camping.
