Winter Wonders Walk 2025

Imagine this – you’re walking the Parkwoods Trail and you’re viewing the beautiful uplit trees as you sip on a hot chocolate and you hear Santa Claus laughing in the distance. Reindeer are on their way from the North Pole, and an ice sculpture glistens in the night from the twinkly lights all around you.

You can experience all of this and more at The Dawes Arboretum’s eighth annual Winter Wonders Walk for 2025! This jaw-dropping display of our grounds will take place from 6-9pm (two time slots - 6-7:30pm and 7:30-9pm) on December 5, 6, 11, 12 and 13 and members can enjoy an exclusive night on December 4.

You don’t want to miss this exciting event with lively music, exciting encounters with Santa Claus each night, a beautiful ice sculpture, an amazing light display, delicious food trucks, warm coffee during the winter weather, a one-of-a-kind outdoor immersive projection, a special visit from Santa’s reindeer and beautiful melodies of local choirs.
