It offers something for everyone, for every season. For winter, this includes ski trails, a toboggan hill, multi-use trails, and Rundle IceWay, which is an ice trail for skating along. Snowshoeing here offers you the opportunity to watch other winter sports.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Terwillegar Park<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Terwillegar Park offers numerous multi-use trails and a large off-leash area for dogs.
