Gatineau Park
Trails Skied: Gatineau Pkwy , #1, Glide Wax: Kuu yellow, Grip Wax:
Got to P5 around 3:30.. parking lot almost full. Skated out of P5 up to 1. Ended up walking up the hills :) Nicely groomed across to FLP though. Went as far as Shilly Shally, then went up FLP to Champlain, turned around and back via 1 to P5. Looks like a good couple weeks ahead with snow on Monday!!
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.
