Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: #50, Glide Wax: , Grip Wax:
Nice skiing from P16 this afternoon. Both the skate lanes and classic tracks were in pretty good shape although certainly soft as one would expect in places. Given the expected drop in temperature tomorrow we should have very good conditions in the park in the coming days. Now you just have to dig out all your cold weather specialty clothing items.
Gatineau Park is ski paradise! The network of ski trails offer machine groomed skate skiing and classic skiing as well as little groomed backcountry trails. Multiple access points allow skiers to access a variety of terrain and scenery.
The NCC offers season or daily pay rates.
