Nature’s Nocturnal Adventure
Scenic Caves Nordic Centre transforms after dark, offering a thrilling adventure. The trails you’ve come to know and love during the day provide an entirely different experience by night.
Since your vision is impeded by darkness, your sense of hearing is heightened, making every rustle, whisper or coo that much more intense. Listen for sounds of local nocturnal wildlife as you’re guided along under a moonlit sky. On a clear night, explore constellations or wish upon a shooting star.
Guided night snowshoe hikes at Scenic Caves Nordic Centre are truly a magical experience.
