Best Time to Visit Jasper: Weather, Trails, Wildlife and Winter
For a first visit built around hiking, lakes and the Icefields Parkway, late June through September is usually the most practical period.

Winter is excellent for snowshoeing, skiing and dark skies, but several roads and facilities are seasonal.
Best Time to Visit Banff: Weather, Crowds, Hiking and Ski Season
For the broadest access to high-elevation hiking, lakes and scenic roads, late June through September is the easiest window.
