KILCONA WALK

  • Kilcona Park 1229 Springfield Road Winnipeg, MB, R2C 2Z2 Canada (map)

Join Out There on Saturday, Feb.8th for a fun winter experience at expansive Kilcona Park(1229 Springfield Rd.). Take in the many bridges, rolling terrain and the seasonal treat of walking on the frozen retention ponds that nestle around the park

MEETING INFO: We will meet at the benches off the main parking lot. On Google Maps this will be labelled 'Kilcona Multi-Use Park' and is accessed via Norris Road that runs parallel to DeVries/Lagemodiere.
We will gather starting at 1:45pm with a plan to depart at 2pm.

BUS: Kilcona Park is not accessible directly by bus. The best bet is to ride the FX4 to Gateway & McIvor. From there it is roughly a 20 minute walk. If you require a ride over to the Park, please reach out and arrangements may be possible

PARKING: There is ample parking at the lot we are meeting. If for some reason the lot is full, there is also parking along Norris Rd.

PLANNED ROUTE: We will definitely go on the frozen retention ponds that border the park. There is also a nice wooded section to explore, as well as several footbridges and a large hill that overlooks the entire park. We will cram in as many features as we can. Expect a walk of near 5km lasting around 1.5 hours.

SLEDDING?: There is a generous run on the hill not far from the parking lot. Feel free to bring along your favourite  sliding implement for some added fun.

REGISTRATION: Not required. Simply meet us there.
COST: Loonie donations will be taken.
GUESTS: This is a 2SLGBTQIA+ event. Guests should be community member or allies.
DOGS: Kilcona has a large off-leash area, but do please keep your dogs leashed when we are not in these areas.

QUESTIONS: Please direct all questions to Matt: mattmacneil.wpg@gmail.com
