This boathouse, located directly on Maligne Lake, is a registered historic building that was one of Jasper National Park’s first outdoor outfitters.

Old Fort Point + My Favorites
Near the site of an early fur brigade post, this area is the starting point for a number of hiking trails. Old Fort Point boasts excellent views of the town and Athabasca River. The area is located 1.6 km (1 mi) south of Jasper. Address: | Jasper, AB
Jasper House National Historic Site + My Favorites
While this abandoned fur trading post is inaccessible because of the Athabasca River, it is visible from a viewpoint and interpretive site just off the Yellowhead Highway. This historic site was moved in 1829 from Brule Lake to its current location. This caused a decrease in use of the shelter, eventually resulting in its closing and abandonment. Today, Jasper House stands as a symbol of the west's fur trading past. Address: 35 km east of Jasper, off Yellowhead Highway #16, AB
