Beginning today, visitors can view and explore the park’s new Winter Equipment Rentals online service at www.recreation.gov/ticket/facility/10090880. Starting January 3, this site can be used to make advanced reservations for cross country ski and snowshoe equipment, to experience the park’s winter landscape. The cost is $10 per pair for adults and $5 per pair for children ages 16 and under.
The revenue from this service will allow the park’s winter equipment rentals to be a self-sustaining program by going directly into the maintenance, repair, and replacement of winter recreation equipment as aging inventory becomes damaged and unusable.
To learn more about winter activities in Voyageurs National Park, the winter equipment rental program, and to find instructions for making online reservations for winter equipment, visit https://www.nps.gov/voya/planyourvisit/winter-activities.htm.
Voyageurs National Park staff encourage you to explore the park this winter. The park is open year-round regardless of visitor center hours; venture out to enjoy winter’s splendor in the North Woods.
