Quick Actions
Tips & Advice
- Book tickets in advance, especially for popular dates, as this enchanting light trail is expected to be a sell-out event.
- Arrive a little before your booked time slot to explore the apres bar and food vendors, and to soak in the festive atmosphere before embarking on the trail.
- Dress warmly in layers and wear comfortable, sturdy footwear, as the trail is over a mile long and takes place outdoors in winter.
- Bring your camera to capture the stunning light displays and magical moments, but be mindful of others enjoying the experience.
- Check the weather forecast before your visit and dress accordingly; while the trail is magical in most conditions, rain or snow can add to the atmosphere but require appropriate gear.
