It’s hot out there, but with many shaded local trails and perfect spots ⬆️ to take a water break, you don’t have to spend all of your time hiding inside this week!

✨Top off your adventures with a cold drink (or treat!) from your favourite local spot! Share your recommendation in the comments🥤🍦

Take care and be safe out there in this hot weather. #ExploreHinton

Have you visited the ✨Athabasca Riverfront Park✨ this season? ⬇️

🌲 Tucked away in the Town of Hinton down West River Road, you’ll find this serene and beautiful place. Sit on a bench and listen to the sounds of the river, or take an easy 1-2 km walk through the trees. If you’re looking for a mostly shaded, family-friendly walk, this one should be at the top of your list!

📍The park is located at 600 West River Road—directional signage will help you get there.

🛶 Often, Hinton’s Athabasca Riverfront Park serves as a boat launch for those who have planned trips down the Athabasca River!

You can stretch right up and touch the sky ☀️🎶
