Pyramid Lake and Patricia Lake
(Attractions & Activities - Outdoor Activities)
Pyramid Lake Rd Jasper National Park, Jasper  T0E 1E0 • 780-852-6176
Description: These two lakes, which lie in close proximity to each other, are located only five miles outside of town. Their scenic beauty attracts visitors who come to explore the shores and enjoy the waters. Pyramid is one of the few national park lakes that permits motor boats, so in addition to fishing, windsurfing and sailing, it's available for water skiing as well. There is also a small island where you can catch views of Pyramid Mountain in the distance, and ice skating is available in the winter. Patricia Lake, named for one of Queen Victoria's granddaughters, welcomes canoeing and fishing, plus picnicking along its shores. Scuba divers also come to visit the remains of an abandoned WWII-era project, which attempted to construct an unsinkable aircraft carrier from ice. It now lies on the lake floor.
