Trails Skied: MacKenzie-King Rd , Glide Wax: Vauhti Green, Grip Wax: Vauhti K-Base, covered with Vauhti Fluor Orange
The trails in the park today are very hard and icy and has an abrasive base. In open areas there is blown snow covering the tracks that slow things down a bit.Make sure you iron in a binder if your heading out for a classic ski.
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.
