Program Cancellations

Programs that require reservations may be cancelled if a minimum number of reservations are not received. Those with reservations will be contacted if such a situation occurs.

Winter Storm Policy

During, and immediately, following periods of severe winter weather some areas of MetroParks facilities may not be available for use.  These areas will be reopened as soon as possible after such an event. We follow a reopening plan that has been developed to best protect and best serve the majority of visitors as quickly as possible.

• River Corridor Recreational Trails
  The paved recreation trails along our waterways are not snow-plowed in winter months, with the exception of a few locations in the area. These trails may be snow and ice-covered in spots throughout the season. Take particular caution on bridges and overpasses, as they tend to freeze first. When snow-covered, residents are welcome to use these rec trails for cross-country skiing. See closure information below.
  
  
  
• Unpaved Hiking & Horse Trails
  Exploring the wilderness in winter is a wonderful experience. Whether gliding through the trees on cross-country skis, or hiking up a ridge to a beautiful view, the silence and beauty of winter is truly something special. At the same time, the snowy, cold, winter environment can be dangerous. Plan your trips accordingly with the weather, and bring the right equipment to travel safely in this type of environment.
