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.
