COVID-19 information for visitors

As the province continues with its relaunch plan, we warmly welcome you back to Jasper.

We are encouraging visitors to come prepared with their own COVID-19 kit, including gloves, face masks and hand sanitizer.

Jasper businesses have been working hard to put in place the appropriate measures to ensure the safest and best possible experience for guests and residents. Be prepared to wait in lines or change plans and respect all regulations set up by respective businesses. Remember to be patient as our business community adjusts to today’s normal. We are in this together.
