A spectacular day of fun for all ages! 

Join us for a nature-filled day of exploration, community, and environmental stewardship! Get ready to kick off the week of events celebrating the beauty and importance of our wild places, and participate in hands-on activities for all ages. Whether you're planting a fern, learning from local organizations, or discovering the wonders of foraged food, there’s something for everyone. Parents and kids can enjoy exciting outdoor activities, while music fills the air from our open-mic.

Picnic-ing is encouraged for those who'd like to spend the day at the event.

Burlington's wild places have so much to offer and we can be sure to give back, so roll up your sleeves, go out in nature, and celebrate!

Intervale Center Community Ski Day hosted by the CTA & Craftsbury Outdoor Center
January 26, 2025, 10:00am – 1:00pm

This event is free, and no appointment is required. Participants can drop by any time during the event period to try out cross-country ski equipment. Basic instruction will be provided by CTA volunteers and staff. A limited number of snowshoes will also be available for those looking for an outdoor adventure other than skiing.

We are asking that participants park at the Intervale Community Farm (MAP). Equipment will be available at the Catamount Trail Tent. Participants can then access all of the great trails available at the Intervale Center.

Questions can be emailed to us at info@catamounttrail.org.
