Summer and Winter Activities
One of the main draws of Parkgate Village for us is how it acts as a conduit for outdoor fanatics throughout the year. It’s good to note that mountain biking enthusiasts meet at the Local Lift Juice Bar before heading out on the extensive trail system that starts by Parkgate. During the hotter months, beach goers make a stop to get a juice or iced coffee before making their way to the Cove.
In the winter, a shuttle service picks up snowshoe hobbyists, skiers and snowboarders alike headed to Mount Seymour to hit the slopes at Parkgate Community Centre. If you’re more of a homebody, or prefer to stay indoors out of the cold, there’s always Parkgate Fitness Centre which hosts yoga classes and a full gym.
