Winter Grooming Update – Network Refresh Underway

Our next round of winter trail grooming is underway, with several key sections of the network refreshed Wednesday and Thursday evenings.

Groomed Wednesday

The following trails were groomed yesterday evening to refresh the riding surface and maintain consistency as winter conditions continue to evolve:

• Upper Corkscrew

• Lower Corkscrew

• Dave's Trail

• GO Trail

• Gravel Multi-use Trail (return)

• Fern Gully

These passes help reduce ruts, soften uneven sections, and improve overall ride quality across the winter trail network.

All grooming is being completed using a quiet, electric Snowdog groomer. This significantly reduces noise and environmental impact while minimizing disturbance to other park users, helping maintain a positive shared-use experience throughout the winter season.

Groomed Thursday

Thursday, grooming efforts focused on the Terwillegar Park multi-use gravel / double-wide trail. Grooming helps create a safer and more predictable winter surface for all users, including walkers, runners, and cyclists. A well-packed surface reduces soft snow, uneven sections, and icy ruts that can develop quickly on high-use multi-use trails.

Trail Conditions & Feedback

Winter trail conditions can change quickly depending on weather, temperature, and use. Rider and user feedback plays an important role in helping us prioritize grooming and identify areas that need attention.

Thank you to the volunteers who continue to put in the time and effort to keep Edmonton’s winter trails safe, accessible, and enjoyable throughout the winter.
