Winter Wanderland ❄

January 29, 2021


Guided and self-guided outdoor activities make for hours of winter fun. Hike the coast, snowshoe the trails, fish the rivers or break new ground on cross-country skis. There is no shortage of outdoor fun in the Saint John region this season!

Bay of Fundy Views

INP

Explore the Irving Nature Park trails, taking in beautiful ocean views. A stop at the Seal Observation Deck is a must to see if any furry friends are sunning themselves on the rock outcropping below. 

Pro Tip - The trails can get icy, winter ice grips for your footwear make for easier trekking.

One of North America's Largest Urban Parks

Rockwood

Rockwood Park offers kilometres of trails, perfect for exploring any time of year. Plan to spend the day skating on Lily Lake, or rent snowshoes, earth cache, geo-cache and more with Inside Out Nature Centre. After your park adventures, warm up with a meal at Lily's Lakeside Casual Dining (take-out available).

Explore The Kingston Peninsula

Elmhurst

Enjoy groomed cross-country skiing trails, snowshoeing under the moon, and ALL things maple syrup with Elmhurst Outdoors. Book your bubble to rent equipment or bring your own. Keep an eye out for their guided nighttime hikes - they sell out fast!

Ice Fishing

Ice fishing has long been a favourite New Brunswick winter past-time. Try it out without the commitment, with The Shacks. Rent a shack with 4-open fishing holes, rods, bait and enough wood for the wood stove to keep you nice and toasty throughout a 3-hour ice fishing experience.

Reconnaissance du territoire

La région de Saint John est située sur le territoire traditionnel des nations Wolastoqiyik, Mi'Kmaq et Peskotomuhkati. Ce territoire est couvert par des traités de paix et d'amitié conclus avec la Couronne britannique dans les années 1700. Ces traités reconnaissaient le rôle important et significatif des Wolastoqiyik, des Mi'Kmaq et des Peskotomuhkati dans cette province et dans le pays, et visaient à établir une relation de confiance et d'amitié.

Envision Saint John : L'organisme de croissance régionale respecte les anciens, passés et présents, et les descendants de ce territoire, et s'engage à poursuivre sur la voie de la vérité, de la collaboration et de la réconciliation.
