Winter Solstice Healing Hemlocks Hike
December 21, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Join a special Winter Solstice Healing Hemlocks Hike around Mill Falls through hemlock groves that took root many years ago and are now threatened by an invasive insect. 
Learn about the ways Parks Canada is helping protect the hemlock forests and ensure they stand tall for generations to come. 
Breathe deeply and be still with these stoic and enchanting lifeforms and feel their healing energy on this transformative journey. This hike will be led by two Parks Canada guides who give a scientific perspective and a mindfulness perspective.
