A rare ski day! About 8 cm of fresh snow fell yesterday, grooming was perfect, skies were blue. The only negative all morning were the two skiers walking down the middle of the parkway skate lane - one of them had a broken ski. I'm curious why there is no walking track in this area. The parkway is enormously wide and there is room for a generous snowmobile track along one side.
Anyway, such a great day! How wonderful to be able to enjoy it!

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.
