*The event has already taken place on this date: Sun, 03/31/2024
Snowshoeing, nordic skiing and winter hiking are back at the Haliburton Sculpture Forest! Snowshoe and ski trails on the lower paths are great for kids or novice skiers, or feel free to explore the upper Glebe Park trails for more of a challenge. Enjoy a winter walk through the forest and discover 40 different sculptures. Self-guided tour brochures are available on our website or at the trailhead.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.
Snowshoeing trails at the Sculpture Forest will open again this winter! Snowshoeing or walking are free on the colour-coded paths (see the map). These take you through the Sculpture Forest as well as on the kilometres of marked snowshoe on the trails north of the museum. Bring your own snowshoes or borrow a pair from the museum for free! (Check the museum hours or call ahead)

 

Depending on the weather, the conditions may vary. At times the pathways can be very icy. Please use caution. We recommend using walking poles and grippers on your boots. Please note that the trail loop in the Sculpture Forest is a shared by walkers, skiers and snowshoers. Please move to the side of the trail to allow skiers to pass. While snowshoeing in the winter is free, donations in our donation boxes, by e-transfer or Tip Tap are greatly appreciated.
 
The ski trails of the Sculpture Forest and Glebe Park will be groomed and ready for Nordic skiing (check the link below for updates). The Nordic ski trails at Glebe Park have consistently been top-rated ski trails in the province for classic and skate skiing. Explore all Glebe Park has to offer on the 13.5 km of ski trails during the day. Enjoy skiing in the Sculpture Forest in the evenings until nine on the lit loop trail. Please note that the upper trails in Glebe Park are quite hilly and are considered "very challenging." The trails in the Sculpture Forest are recommended for novice skiers.
 
If you would like to use the trails for cross-county skiing, please buy a trail pass in advance or you can pay at the trailhead. See the Ski Haliburton website for pricing and updates. Day passes (self-registration) are available at the trail heads. Please bring cash, or you can e-transfer to membership@skihaliburton.com
