Mooney's Bay Ski Area
Trails Skied: Stadium, Glide Wax: Swix easy glide brush on, Grip Wax:
Lunch skate ski on the Stadium, orchard & playing fields. Despite the weather the conditions are pretty good. The lower temp is helping the grooming set up nicely. Oddly the wind wasn't much of an issue today & made for a pretty enjoyable ski.
Mooney's Bay offers skiing inside the Ottawa city limits! There are 5.5 km of groomed trails for classic and skate with some portions lit at night. Perfect for after work. Perfect for the entire family. To view course offerings: Ottawa 2021/2022 Recreation Registration Page.
