I have never snowshoed before, will there be things for me to do?

No problem! This is an entry-level event for anyone to participate. We will have snowshoes to borrow for the event, and there will be experts available to help make your experience something to remember. This is a great place to learn!

Can I bring my dog?

Tara Lila is pet friendly. Pet leashes are recommended, Please carry out all pet waste.

What about parking?

There is free parking at all three of Tara Lila’s park units. For the Snowshoe Celebration we will have volunteers to help direct you to parking.

How much does it cost?

All activities are FREE - as is the hot chocolate and smores at the campfire.

How should I dress?

For your own comfort, please dress appropriately for the temperature. Layers are usually best for outdoor activities, and an outer layer that is wind/rain repellent is recommended. There will be a warming hut with hot chocolate and a bonfire to keep warm.

Should I bring my children?

Absolutely! This is a great way to introduce children to the wonder of the snowy Northwoods.

Do I have to wear snowshoes on the trail?

The groomed snowshoe trails are designed for snowshoe travel only, boot divots can ruin the experience for others. If you must wear boots, we ask that you walk next to the trail.

Are the other trail units open during the Snowshoe Celebration?

Yes, we encourage you to explore all of the trails at Tara Lila.
