January 24, 2026
Event Date2026-01-24T14:00:00 - 2026-01-24T15:00:00

Join the Boston Park Rangers for a snowshoeing tour around Boston’s historic Franklin Park. Snowshoeing is a fun and healthy way to enjoy the outdoors and further explore The Emerald Necklace in the winter. Our Park Rangers will demonstrate and instruct all the snowshoeing basics. Then, you'll be led on an 30 minute-long guided tour, where we will uncover some of the plants and wildlife that thrive in the wintry New England environment.

  • A limited supply of snowshoes will be available for use during the event
  • Please dress accordingly and be prepared for winter weather conditions
  • For ages 12+
  • In the event that we are unable to snowshoe, the program will be conducted as a walking tour
