Enjoy Recreation & Parks Relaxing Parks for Rest and Play! Parks can be a place to enjoy a relaxing picnic, play catch with a friend, enjoy a book in the fresh air or walk the dogs. Our parks also offer a chance to get active! You’ll find lots of things to do like kayaking at Fairy Lake, try out one of our skateparks (Acton and Georgetown) or just find a place to stop and smell the roses. For more information visit www.haltonhills.ca/parks. Swimming & Skating Looking for a pool during you’re visit? Why not check out the Gellert Community Centre in Georgetown or the Acton Lion’s Indoor Pool. Both offer drop-in recreational swimming throughout the week. If you prefer ice skating, the Acton Arena & Community Centre or the Mold-Masters SportsPlex in Georgetown offer recreational skating during winter months. New this year, Mold-Masters SportsPlex offers summer ice! 10 4 Explore our Beautiful Trails Town trails, such as Hungry Hollow (seen above) provide a convenient opportunity for visitors to park the car and explore nature. Most trails can even accommodate a stroller or bicycle! Bring the family and discover over 20 km of trails, some of which connect to restful parks and gardens. Trail maps are available at all Town facilities and the Chamber of Commerce, or online at www.haltonhills.ca/trails. Make a Splash! Our two splash pads are sure to be a warmweather highlight for the whole family! There is no cost to visit, and pads are open daily 10am-8pm from Victoria Day to Labour Day weekends.
