March 7 -13 has been declared by Mayor and Council as Snowmobile Week in Timmins.

Snowmobile tourism operators and the hospitality industry have capitalized from our long winters and the sport of snowmobiling . Tourism Timmins has positioned this area in various key markets as the ultimate destination for a snowmobile vacation and today, during the winter months, we play host to thousands of visitors who come here from Ontario, Quebec and the USA to enjoy what many take for granted, white gold.

A number of activities have been planned throughout the week celebrating the importance of this recreational activity and the celebration will end with the Eclipse Financial Snowcross Pro Challenge. The Timmins Snowmobile Club in partnership with Tourism Timmins has taken the lead on the Snowmobile Week initiative.
