Participating in cross-country ski races provides fantastic experiences for youngsters (and the young-at-heart). It’s a chance to hit the trails with a group of outdoor enthusiasts in a supportive environment.

Participants racing in the 1.8km freestyle event on February 22nd, age categories U10 + U12.

Youths benefit from participating in Nova Scotia loppets, or the annual Nova Scotia Provincial Championships. These events both provide friendly atmospheres.

Racing benefits:

>Gain Independence
>Become Strategic Minded
