The holiday season is almost upon us. If you’ve been looking for gift options that make your loved ones happy and give back to an organization you’d love to support at the same time (ahem: Trans Canada Trail), we’ve got you covered!
From cozy socks to tasty treats and epic adventures, here are our top holiday gift guide picks that spread cheer and support the Trail.

A little sweetness and a lot of good will: Peace by Chocolate
Offering four delectable flavours of Trans Canada Trail-inspired chocolate, these Peace by Chocolate bars make thoughtful (and tasty) stocking stuffers – and they’re also great energy boosters to bring along on Trail outings. Bonus: $1 from each chocolate bar is donated to support Trans Canada Trail’s important work from coast to coast to coast.
