Trail SeasonsSpringLook for increased wildlife activity on trails. Many plants and trees begin blooming in early April. Melting snow and ice means higher than average water levels – wear appropriate footwear, and always use caution when hiking.
SummerThe most popular time for trail use. Hike or bike on most trails. Be careful in hot weather. Always stay hydrated and look for shade if you need a break to cool down.
FallCooler temperatures, scenic landscapes and a dramatic colour palette make fall a beautiful season to hike trails in your area. Wear layers for added comfort, and don’t forget a camera!
WinterTrails are not maintained during winter months – use at your own risk with high-grip footwear.Snowshoes and cross-country skis are popular methods of accessing trails during winter months.
Please put waste in its place. Garbage containers are placed at trail entry/exit points, and some areas have blue binsfor recyling.
Help keep parksand trails clean
