Cross Country Skiing
Visitors are able to enjoy several groomed ski trails during winter, thanks to Parks Canada. The remaining trails are not groomed or cleared of fallen trees and are tracked by users. You can borrow skis, snowshoes, and children's chariots with cross-country ski kits from the Hawood Inn in Waskesiu.
