Sleeping Giant Loppet: Trail Conditions

All 50K of trails at the Park have now been groomed for skating, there are classic tracks on the 20K loop around Lake Marie Louise. So head out to the park and get skiing! 

If you plan to ski at the Park prior to the Loppet, keep in mind that the Visitors' Centre at Marie Louise Lake is open weekends only, from 10:00am to 4:00pm.  This is a great place to start training from for all events.  During the week, skiers should access the trails from Rita Lake where an in-out course of any distance may be skied or the 30km loop including the Burma and Pickerel Lake trails can be completed.  The trails will be closed for a period of time prior to the Loppet for final grooming. Check the snow phone at 807-625-5075 for details or the Thunder Bay Nordic Trails website at www.nordictrails-tb.on.ca.
