Snowshoes and Snow Clues | Brampton

Join us to track and identify signs of local animals and learn some of their secrets for surviving chilly winter temperatures. Try out snowshoeing and leave behind tracks of your own!

Snowshoes will be provided, but supplies are limited. Please register with the number of adults, youth, and children attending to reserve a pair of snowshoes for your household. In the event of a snow-free day, join us for a winter walk through the woods instead. After the walk, there will be a campfire to enjoy plus hot chocolate & s'more kit for purchase.

Meeting location is at TRCA's Etobicoke Field Study Centre within Claireville Conservation Area (8180 Highway 50, Brampton).

This program is FREE and generously supported by Peel Region!
