Edmonton International Airport to ski resorts

Edmonton International Airport (YEG) is south of Edmonton near Leduc. Marmot Basin is in Jasper National Park, several hours west on Highway 16 with a final road south of Jasper town. SunDog lists a scheduled airport-to-Jasper shuttle; the ski-area shuttle from town is a separate service with its own operating dates and meeting points. An afternoon flight may therefore suit a night in Jasper before skiing rather than an immediate lift arrival. A rental car gives more flexibility but still requires winter-road planning and current national-park access information. Edmonton city centre, Jasper town and the Marmot Basin day lodge are three different destinations. Compare the full itinerary and confirm a return that suits your flight.

Winter travel

Check Alberta 511 and Parks Canada Jasper alerts. Verify the open Marmot Basin approach, park entry arrangements and any temporary closures rather than relying on an older itinerary.
