Sponsors

A huge thank you to @ParksFdnCalgary and the @CityofCalgary for helping our community Embrace the Outdoors and spend time outside this winter. It is needed more than ever and a great way to stay connected with our neighbors and community. #YYCOutdoors

A shout out and kudos to Campers Village for making the snowshoe rentals in Legacy possible for this season and beyond!

FAQs

What do I need to snowshoe?

We recommend winter (tall) boots. Hiking poles can help with your balance, but are a personal preference.

Where can I snowshoe?

We love and recommend the nature reserve! Otherwise, please explore the pathways, parks, and amenities Legacy has to offer. Create a new trail!

How do I get into the shed?

When you book, you will be emailed a lock code. If the code changes, we will let you know via email.

What responsibilties do I have if I rent the snowshoes?

Please take care of our community resources. If anything breaks, please let us know ASAP by emailing [email protected]. Accidents happen, and we would only request for you to reimburse for intentional damage or unreturned snowshoes.

Please make sure your snowshoes are returned on time so others can use them.

How are these free?

We have been able to make these free through a generous Parks Foundation Grant, City of Calgary support, as well as the support of Campers Village.

How long is the rental?

We went the snow shoes in one (1) hour blocks – but we recommend booking for three (3) hours. We believe that three hours gives families more time to enjoy and adventure to nearby ammentiies like Wolf Willow or Fish Creek Provincial Park and allows adequate time to get the snowshoes back for the next family.

Please do not book for more than 4 hours!

How do I book?

Please use the links above to add the right snowshoes to your “cart”. When you are done adding your bookings, remember to open your cart and “check out” your order. Your order is not complete until you receive the confirmation email. We reserve the right to cancel or modify your booking at any time.
