Nordic Skiing & Snowshoeing
Stroll, glide, or skate through a stunning forest.
The Nordic Center offers more than 15 kilometers of immaculately groomed cross-country ski trails and snowshoe trails. Here, you'll find unsurpassed beauty as you explore beneath the towering cirque of Mt Timpanogos, through open meadows and aspen forest glades. Quiet and peaceful, these woods are just a couple miles from the center of the ski resort bustle, yet you feel a world away.
If you're new to cross-country skiing, you're in luck—not only are excellent rentals available, but instruction is too. And if you'd rather jump into an activity with no learning curve (but lots of beauty and a good bit of exercise), give snowshoeing a try. No new skills are needed to strap snowshoes on your feet–step outside the door and stroll the snowshoe trails freely.
