Accessible Tours at Mountain Magic Winterquest; Everyone’s Invited to the Magic
Walking through snow can be challenging, even for able-bodied residents some days. To help more community members enjoy the Mountain Magic Winterquest festival this weekend, we are pleased to offer accessible tours along the winter trail.
This year, residents with mobility or accessibility challenges can experience the lights, the story walk, and all the winter magic from the comfort of a guided tour on our side‑by‑side tour vehicle.
What’s Happening
Join us at Mountain Magic Winterquest for a cozy ride along the decorated trail. You’ll be able to:
- Take in the lights and winter atmosphere
- Enjoy the storybook walk along the route
- Spend time with family and friends in a more accessible, comfortable way
Who the Accessible Tours Are For
These tours are designed for residents who may find walking the snowy trail difficult, including:
- People with mobility or accessibility challenges
- Seniors or those who tire easily
- Residents recovering from injury or dealing with health conditions that make walking in snow difficult
If you’re not sure whether this is right for you, please reach out – we’re happy to help you decide.
How the Tours Work

How to Book a Tour
To reserve a spot on an accessible tour:
- Online: https://www.letschatmackenzie.ca/winterquest-2025
