Jasper National Park has played host to its share of celebrities over the decades, from politicians to royalty (Hollywood and actual), but one of its most famous visitors was also one of its first, who enjoyed his time there so much he returned nine years later for another visit.
In 1914 Sir Arthur Conan Doyle — famous around the world as the creator of the great detective Sherlock Holmes — was invited by the Canadian government to tour Canada, with the trip culminating in a visit to what was then called Jasper Park.
