Where can I go tobogganing in Hamilton?

You might be asking, where can you toboggan in Hamilton, now that we have snow?

School is closed one more day after a blizzard hit the city on Monday, and while the city remains under an inclement weather alert on Tuesday, sliding down one of Hamilton's five tobogganing hills might be just what the teacher ordered.

Outdoor adventurers will want to wear full winter gear before they toboggan. Environment Canada is calling for possible flurries and a daytime high of -3 C on Tuesday. Winds will be up to 15 km per hour in the afternoon but gusting up to 50 this evening making the wind chill feel like -10 C.

The city warns people on its website to wear a helmet and follow posted safety tips.

Here are Hamilton's five approved toboggan hills.

1. Chedoke Golf Course - Beddoe Course, 563 Aberdeen Ave. Find the Beddoe Course, hole #1

2. Garth and Stonechurch Reservoir - 1515 Garth St. Riders can use either the northeast corner or the south side (east of parking lot)

3. King's Forest Golf Course - 100 Greenhill Ave., hole #9, just in front of the 9th green

4. Waterdown Memorial Park - 200 Hamilton St., Waterdown. Northeast corner, west of baseball diamond #3

5. Dundas Driving Park - 71 Cross St., Dundas. Parkside Hill, adjacent to baseball diamond #1.

Some of the city's safety tips while toboganning: protect your brain, wear a helmet; assess the weather and physical conditions of the hill to ensure it is safe; avoid icy hills; do not toboggan at night or dusk; snow jumps and other obstacles are not permitted; and a parent or guardian should accompany children.

Call 905-546-2424 to report concerns about a hill.

Call 911, if emergency assistance is required.
