Halloween Howl in High Park – Session 2
Come and celebrate all things spooky at this fun family Halloween event. This all outdoor event will begin with a hike through the woodlands. We’ll stop to learn the not-so-scary truth about owls, spiders, bats, decomposers, Witch Hazel trees and more. After the hike, your group can warm up around our campfire and make Halloween themed art. We will provide roasting sticks, hot chocolate and marshmallows for everyone and you are welcome to bring any additional items you would like to roast. Fun for all ages! Costumes are strongly encouraged but optional.
The Nature Centre has moved to a smaller location while our main building is being renovated to improve accessibility. In our smaller space, we can accommodate fewer people at Halloween Howl than in years past. If you register for Halloween Howl and are no longer able to attend, please reply the registration confirmation email to cancel so as many people as possible can get spooky with us in High Park.

When biking, there are bike racks available in front of the Nature Centre. Please remember to bring a bike lock.
A number of changes were made to the travel network within High Park as part of the High Park Movement Strategy that might influence your decision to drive to High Park. In case you’re driving we strongly recommend you to park your car at the public parking lot near Grenadier Cafe.
Please note, High Park is closed to cars on the weekends. If your event is on a weekend, you will need to park outside the park and walk in, or take transit.
