Discover the wonders of winter wildlife!
Join us on Saturday, February 21, 2026 for a fun winter outing to track and identify signs of local animals and discover how they survive the chilly season! Try 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. On a snow-free day, we’ll enjoy a winter walk through the woods instead.
Meeting location for both sessions will be at parking lot of Dicks Dam Park (250 Glasgow Road, Bolton).
This program is FREE and generously supported by Peel Region!
