We have been able to use the renovator this afternoon, to break up a few icy patches on the Nakkertrak. We may temporarily close some sections of the Trak to facilitate grooming/snowmaking. Please follow the direction signs and don't move V boards.

Open access hours on the weekend, noon to 9pm, with Family Time (no intensity skiing) from 2-4 on both days. Details http://nakkertok.ca/early-ski-loop/

About Skiing at Nakkertok..


Nakkertok has a network of about 75km of skating, classical and backcountry trails at two locations just north of Ottawa in the Gatineau Hills.


General Info: Driving Directions | Trail Maps | Trail Conditions | Grooming Activity Report.


Nakkertok South is the main attraction offering groomed skating and classic skiing, chalets, races and children's programming. There are lit trails for night skiing. Club membership, or a day-use fee required for skiing.


Nakkertok North trails are quite demanding, and only occasionally groomed (Fridays). They offer a refreshing backcountry wilderness experience for those with good skiing skills. The trails at Nakkertok North are almost always quiet. The annual Nakkerloppet event in February is a great opportunity to discover these trails by making the North to South crossing.
