There were over 2 million visits to the Meewasin Trail in 2023 and we are on pace to see another huge increase! The Meewasin trail network has been a huge support to physical and mental health for runners in the region and a major draw for active visitors. There are over 110km of trail to enjoy with priceless conserved spaces around them to enjoy and learn about the natural environment.

Meewasin relies on donations to complete upgrades to the trails and the more donations, the more improvements. We currently have a major project underway in Kiwanis Memorial Park that needs more support, to read more about them visit Meewasin.

To connect with someone about donating to Meewasin, recognition opportunities for larger contributions or questions about current projects you can connect with donations@meewasin.com.

Please note that a charitable donation receipt will be issued for donations of $10 and more. Tax receipts are sent out by Meewasin after the donation is received.
