Snowshoeing by Moonlight in Toronto's High Park
Under the light of a full moon, step into a winter wonderland and experience the magic of snowshoeing in the moonlight. Learn the history of snowshoes, why they work, and how to use them before venturing onto snowy trails. As we walk, we’ll learn about the Moon, how it influences the rhythms of the Earth, and winter traditions inspired by the Moon. Together, we’ll end the evening by warming up with a cozy drink, surrounded by the quiet beauty of winter’s embrace.
Note: This event is highly snow-dependent. The program may be modified or canceled if the forecast changes.
What to Wear
Unlike skis, snowshoes don’t require special boots. Snowshoes can be adjusted to fit most winter boots. Insulated, waterproof winter boots are ideal for snowshoeing.
This is an entirely outdoor event making dressing for the weather important. Please come dressed in warm outer and inner layers including, winter coats, snow pants, mitts, gloves, scarves, toques, etc.
