Nelson Nordic Ski Club Winter fun and fitness, in the heart of nature and in the heart of our community. The grooming machine and all operating costs are paid for by club members.

Open seasonally from mid-December to mid-April, the popular trails are only 10 minutes south of Nelson, BC at the Whitewater Ski Area turnoff. We currently have approximately 30 kilometres of trails developed and maintained by paid staff and volunteer club members. There are lights for night skiing till 10pm, and trails rated beginner to expert. The trails are well maintained using a state of the art PistenBully 100 grooming machine for both track skiing (classic style) and skate skiing. Annual trail maintenance is done by club volunteers.

Halloween party prepping or board meeting?! Either way we’re keen to make the lodge a little less spooky and more comfortable. Big thanks to Beauties for setting us up with some terrifyingly good pizza and salad while we discussed the vision for the lodge and huts!

Our annual survey had one overwhelming request - more trails! Thanks to the DeJong family, we are thrilled to announce the new John and Kay DeJong loop, a blue trail at the summit of the rail trail south of cottonwood lake.

Our crews have been hard at work getting it prepared for when the snow arrives and our grooming team can do their thing!

A huge thanks to the Regional District of Central Kootenay for giving us permission to groom 2km of the rail trail this coming season! The expanded trail will run from the rail trail junction near Euphrates Cabin south towards Hall Siding. The extra 4km return trail will allow members and guests to ski over 10km on the Busk side alone!

East Busk and Cardiac Hill reroute are taking shape! The crews are doing incredible work widening and ditching trails to make them more resilient and improve ski conditions. And the new hill is going to be a beauty.

The old hill grade was over 20%! The new one will still have some punchy climbs but will twist and turn with more manageable grades, and should be able to hold the snow better too.

Lots more exciting news on track too - stay tuned!
