Dion Ignite the Night Snowshoe Race

January 08, 2026

Get ready to light up the night! The Dion Ignite the Night Snowshoe Race is back on January 17th at 6:00 p.m. at Upper Canada Village in Morrisburg. This community event welcomes snowshoers of all experience levels to enjoy a magical winter evening.

Participants will snowshoe through pathways illuminated by over one million twinkling lights. It’s an experience unlike any other and a chance to embrace winter while supporting the WDMH Foundation’s Family Care Fund.

This Snowshoe Canada-sanctioned race offers 5km and 10km distance options, with 5km walkers welcome. Whether you’re a seasoned racer or brand new to snowshoeing, everyone can experience the joy and challenge of this unique event. All participants are required to bring a reliable, fully charged headlamp to help light their journey.

After crossing the finish line, join the post-race festivities in the Harvest Barn, including drinks, snacks, door prizes, and the exciting chance to win a pair of Dion Snowshoes.

We can’t wait to see you shine under the lights!
