Join our senior/55+ cross-country ski instructor and volunteers for twelve weeks of guided classic cross-country ski tours on the weekly posted route for the Grand Tour of Caledonia. The tours will start at 11am on Tuesdays and will be 1 - 2.5 hours, depending on the length of the posted route. If the temperature is below -15oC at 10am or snow conditions are unsuitable, the scheduled session will be cancelled. Participants must be competent blue-level classic cross-country skiers. Routes vary in length from 5 km – 15+ km and routes utilize a combination of green/easy, blue/intermediate, and black/advanced level trails.

Each Monday morning that week’s Grand Tour of Caledonia route will be posted on Grand Tour of Caledonia Challenge | Caledonia Nordic Ski Club. Participants can also register on this link for the Grand Tour of Caledonia; registration entitles participants to post their weekly times and be eligible for weekly prizes, tour finisher medal and buff.
NOTE: Registering for the Grand Tour of Caledonia is not a requirement to participate in the Seniors/55+ Weekly Guided Tours.
The Grand Tour of Caledonia is NOT A SKI RACE; it provides participants with an opportunity to challenge themselves to try new trails and routes. The Seniors/55+ Guided Tours provide an excellent opportunity for participants wanting to do the Grand Tour of Caledonia but lacking the comfort level to do it alone.
Non-members must purchase half-priced ski trail passes online with registration (Cost including GST is $12.50 X 12 sessions = $150). NOTE: It may be more cost-effective to purchase a club membership!
Half-priced rental equipment for seniors/55+ will be available and can be pre-booked online with registration (Cost including GST is $9.71 X 12 Sessions = $116.52).
Cost is $0; Non-Members must purchase half price trail pass sets.
