Winter in Churchill means cold temperatures with tundra winds, so layering is essential: a moisture-wicking thermal base, a fleece or wool mid-layer, and warm accessories like a toque, neck gaiter, and liner gloves. The good news is our winter trips include gear rental — parka, snow pants, boots, gloves, and hat — so you don't need to buy expensive outerwear. Focus on packing your own thermal underwear, wool socks, and personal cold-weather items. Many travellers bring hand and foot warmers for extended tours outside. For photos, bring a camera, wide-angle lens, tripod, and extra batteries you can store somewhere warm.
