The Athabasca Landing Trail section of the Trans Canada Trail follows the historic route built by the Hudson Bay Company in 1876. It was originally used by traders, Klondike gold prospectors and homesteaders. Explore: bit.ly/3qQl8LH

You may have noticed that things look a little different these days. As of June 1, 2021, the name of The Great Trail of Canada has changed back to its original and much-loved name, the iconic Trans Canada Trail! tctrail.ca/news/name-change/

The Sheep Highway is now seasonally closed to vehicles and also happens to be completely ice/snow free all the way to the turnaround. If you enjoyed the 1A Parkway this summer, you'll love this. Go get some this weekend! #yycbike #wintercycling

This is the year to embrace winter. Snowshoeing is a great way to get out and explore the North Saskatchewan river valley. For a list of snowshoe locations check out edmonton.ca/activities_parks… #trekthetrails

As the golden colours of autumn begin to grace our parks, you should always be prepared for changing weather. Weather in the mountains can especially change quickly – always carry extra clothing like rain and wind protection and a toque.

Be alert when hiking - you never know who you might run into on the trail! Make noise, travel in groups, carry bear spray. If you encounter a bear, back away slowly, take your belongings, leave the area. #ParksSmart #BearCountry #NationalWildlifeDay ow.ly/DO3h50BhsY5
