Interested in learning to snowshoe or ski but don't want to commit to purchasing your own gear? Viles Arboretum in Augusta offers ski and snowshoe rentals Wednesday through Saturday from 10:30 to 4:30. Our friendly staff will help you find the right size equipment and offer you information on trail conditions before you head out. We offer approximately 1.5 miles of groomed ski trails, and over 6 miles of snowshoe trails.
Rentals are free for anyone under the age of 18 and $15 for adults. Equipment is available on a first-come-first-serve basis. If you are interested in an instructional period, or a tour for your group, they are available for additional cost. This is an affordable outing opportunity for clubs and groups.
