Crawford Lake and Holiday Market

December 10th, 2022

It’s winter in Canada! Don’t let that stop you from getting out into the great outdoors. In fact- why not bundle up and come join us to see what the beauty of winter has to offer?

Join us for a serene hike around Crawford Lake exploring winter trails and views. After the hike, we are heading to a lively Holiday Market at Georgetown. There is no better way to enjoy Christmas shopping as to explore handmade crafts and locally grown produce presented by the local community.

All of our winter trip are weather dependent. If it’s cold and rainy we’ll cancel the trip.

THIS ACTIVEDAYS TRIP IS ORGANIZED BY THE ACTIVEDAYS COMMUNITY. SEE ALL ACTIVEDAYS TRIPS AND JOIN US VIA OUR FACEBOOK GROUP!

WHAT TO EXPECT WITH ACTIVEDAYS

To us, facilitating this event is about creating an environment that you can engage with in your own way. This is your experience and everyone has their own relationship with the outdoors and their bodies. We want to meet you where you are at. There may be a number of groups hiking at various speeds for you to take part in, or the option to explore o your own.

Active Days is also a community. This is an inclusive space to meet new people, share stories and have fun! To us, there is no better place to get to know someone than the outdoors. We all share a desire to get out, explore and move.

All ActiveDays participants are required to sign a waiver. You can find a digital copy of a sample waiver HERE
