MobilityThe Squamish at Dusk trail takes place in Rose Park on grass and on a smaller path through Carson/Lily's Gardens. Please wear weather appropriate footwear and clothing to ensure a comfortable and warm experience. For little ones, strollers are allowed and should be able to access the whole event (some parts of Carson Gardens have thinner trails and some roots/rocks and are a little bit trickier to navigate, and if there is snow or mud they may be harder to push) . For wheelchairs and mobility equipment: the walk is through the grassy park with uneven surfaces, and potentially mud and snow depending on the weather, with some small trails that are quite thin and rocky. Please come along, and our staff and volunteers can help you to visit as much of the experience as possible. We know that there are some accessibility challenges with this venue. Accessibility is at the top of our minds as we grow the event and our dream is to one day help to improve the park if the event remains at this location.
