Description

As mapped here, the loop begins from the parking lot at the riding stables, but you can reach the edge of the bench (Trail 2b) from many other places in the trail network.

The edge is of course the highlight, peering down on the river and the town. Sources: https://www.pc.gc.ca/en/pn-np/ab/jasper/activ/activ-experience/hiver-winter/raquette-snowshoe http://parkscanadahistory.com/brochures/jasper/winter-trails-e-2012.pdf
