Iconic red chair perched between Third and Fourth Lakes in Jasper's Valley of the Five Lakes offers a strong foreground subject with turquoise lake reflections, layered conifer slopes and peaks. Short, well-marked trails and a small parking area make it very accessible; expect crowds mid-day in summer. Best at sunrise or sunset for warm light and calm water reflections; shoulder seasons give fewer visitors and richer colors. No entry fee; stay on boardwalks to protect vegetation.
