Cross Country Skiing

This feature now available on our Backroad GPS Maps!

Canadians know how to do winter. They have no choice. To stay indoors would be to go stir crazy during the long, often cold, winters. That is where your Backroad Mapbook comes in handy. Each book covers all the popular cross-country ski or Nordic areas, many of the better backcountry ski areas and the great selection of downhill skiing and snowboarding areas that Canada has to offer. Snowshoeing is fast becoming a popular activity and we are proud to say there is no better source for snowshoeing trails in Canada than the Backroad Mapbooks.

In addition to each ski area listing in the Winter Recreation section, backcountry ski and snowshoe enthusiasts can look at the Multi-Use Trail section or on the maps in the book for more opportunities. We also label and symbol the main Nordic and downhill ski areas found in the area. Let the Backroad Mapbooks show you the way outdoors even in winter.

pointer Head wear, like a balaclava or wool toque, are essential on a winter trip since most of your body's heat loss is from your head.
