Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: , Glide Wax: Blue, Grip Wax: Blue
I skied only the Doldrums this morning but it was impressive. Yesterday's narrow renovated center lane for skating, (which was referred to as groomed) is fortunately gone. Whether you skate or go classic today it is in top shape and freshly groomed. Get out there and enjoy the wonderful conditions before Monday's rain arrives.

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.
