Descriptions:
The Himsworth South
Cross-Country Ski Trails are located on privately owned land in
Himsworth South Township. Approximately 8 km of groomed trails
traverse a variety of scenic countryside from low lying marshes, to
higher rolling hardwood and coniferous forests that line the trails
like a canopy. The trails offer a mix of challenges for all
cross-country skiers, from the novice to the master. The terrain
varies from flat to very steep. If lucky, while skiing along the
trails, users might catch a glimpse of the local wildlife - deer,
moose, fox, beaver, porcupine, chickadees, blue jays, and the downy
woodpeckers.
Please visit this website
for more information.
Directions:
From
the HWY 11/17 junction near Seymour Street, head southeast on HWY 11.
After 25.7 km, turn left onto Mccharme Line, left at Main
Street, and right onto Lindquist Line.
The parking lot is located on the right side of the road
shortly after crossing the train tracks.
