Winterlit (2022)
Don’t forget to check out the award-winning Winterlit event happening at Mountsberg Conservation Area this winter!
Conservation Halton says residents can enjoy a magical, illuminated walk through the woods, admire the inspirational upcycled art installations along the trails and take a moment to relax by the fire with friends and family. Food and hot beverages are also available for purchase to enjoy during your visit through the snowy woodland.
With funding provided by the Government of Ontario, Conservation Halton has continued to build on the event from the previous two years to create even more memorable experiences for visitors.
What can visitors expect when they attend? There will be glowing fireside lounges and messages of hope throughout the trails.
The uniqueness of this event lies in its location, far away from the city lights and sounds. Lucky visitors can hear local wildlife, such as owls, and enjoy the magic of a star-filled winter sky.
Conservation Halton will provide guided Owl Prowls offered by Mountsberg’s Raptor Centre staff on select dates – January 6th, 7th, 13th, 14th, and February 3rd and 4th. Visitors will be able to meet one of the resident Mountsberg owls nose-to-beak before embarking on a little adventure.
Winterlit will once again have its extra special Enchanted Evenings event taking place this year. In addition to the regular Winterlit programming, guests can enjoy live music, strolling through paths with Fire and Ice performers, shopping at a small vendor marketplace, and sipping alcoholic beverages from local craft breweries and wineries. Enchanted Evenings are only offered on New Year’s Eve and Valentine’s Day weekend and tend to sell out quickly, so people are encouraged to book early.
Winterlit will start on Wednesday, December 28th and will run until February 20th, 2023. Tickets are available now and can be purchased here. The event is offered Thursday to Sunday evenings from 5:30 p.m. – 10:30 p.m. It’s held at Mountsberg Conservation Area, located at 2259 Milburough Town Line in Campbellville.
