Winter trails in the Tumbler Ridge UNESCO Global Geopark are often shared, which means you can cross country ski, snowshoe, and hike on the same trails. To help keep everyone safe, here are some reminders on trail etiquette: Visit www.wnms.ca and check the trail description to know what trails can accommodate the activity you are looking to do. Phone the Visitor Centre if you are unsure. The number is 250-242-3123.... The track set portion of the trail is for classic skiing only! The flat, groomed lane is for skate skiing. Please do not walk or snowshoe on these tracks, there is plenty room for hiking and snowshoeing on other areas. Leave no trace. Pack out everything you pack in.

The 2020 Festival & World Tour have gone virtual and are offering monthly features and film programs throughout the year, bringing adventures & stories to a couch near you. https://filmfest.banffcentre.ca/
