Beginner's Guide to Glen Eden

Glen Eden in the winter and Kelso in the spring/-summer/fall, this Conservation Area is buzzing with activity year round. A park by two names is just as sweet.

Glen Eden offers a rental shop, skiing, a fully-equipped terrain park for snowboarders, snow tubing and lessons for all ages and skill-levels.

Kelso Conservation Area/Glen Eden is located in Milton, Ontario and is owned and operated by Conservation Halton. This park has an area of 3.97 square kilometres and contains Kelso Lake which was built for flood control of Sixteen Mile Creek.

The sight of the snow guns blowing fresh powder onto Glen Eden is a sight to see, and a sure sign of the start to a great Winter season. Kelso tranforms from a mountain biking and family fun hub into a ski hill with 16 runs and three terrain park runs. The Kelso trails are closed during the winter, but the ski hills are ready for winter fun!

Terrain Park

The Terrain Park at Glen Eden is where the action happens! With one of the largest and most progressive Terrain Parks around, it really is the place to be.

With a focus on building features that let users build skills and develop confidence, it’s a safe environment for beginner’s and novices alike. From 5ft jumps to 35ft jumps plus rails and boxes ranging from small ride on features to air on double kink hand rails, Glen Eden has something for everyone.
