Winter 2014-15 marks the start of Kanata Nordic's  multi-year dream project to make Wesley Clover Parks into a vibrant family cross-country ski centre for the region -- and we need your help.

This season, Phase One, is a transitional one with the club maintaining its existing base at the Y Camp in Dunrobin while also improving the trail network at Wesley Clover Parks. Having two locations requires us to double up on several costly grooming resources, such as a snow machine (Ski Doo type), a groomer (to set the tracks), insurance coverage and storage (a shipping container). All labour continues to be performed for free by our tireless volunteers. 

Any donation amount welcome! Every dollar takes us closer to realizing the vision of a full-service xc ski centre right in town that will be Kanata Nordic's new home base and a major winter activity hub for all.

Download a trail map here. To enjoy all the benefits Kanata Nordic offers and support its long-term initiatives to promote fitness and enjoyment of the outdoors through xc skiing please consider becoming a member. For more details about this initiative read our press release.
