Background

The Guelph Nordic Ski Club is a volunteer organization founded in 2003. A member of Cross Country Canada (CCC), our not–for–profit ski club provides a beautiful venue for skate and classic style skiing.

Over two million Canadians participate annually in cross–country skiing activities. A sport with no inherent boundaries for age, region, gender or conditioning level. Cross country skiing is easy to learn and its health benefits are well documented.

Many cross country enthusiasts derive great enjoyment from an activity that takes place in the pristine silence of Canada’s winter. Unique to the Nordic Ski Club of Guelph, our trails traverse the sacred lands of the Ignatius Jesuit Centre. Lands, that for nearly a century, have inspired prayer and spiritual transformation.

Location

The Guelph Nordic Ski Club is hosted by the Ignatius Jesuit Centre in Guelph. The Centre, a 240 hectare property minutes from downtown Guelph, is located on Hwy #6 N — 1km north of the Woodlawn/Woolwich Street intersection. Watch for the main entrance on the left as you travel north on #6.

The Ignatius Jesuit Centre has a trail system which stretches from the Guelph Lake Conservation Area to the Guelph–Elora Trail, and this in turn connects with the Trans–Canada Trail. The Centre trails are excellent for walking and trail running during the summer months. During the snowy season, many of these trails are groomed for both classic and skate skiing by the Guelph Nordic Ski Club.

Did you know the federal government has implemented a non–refundable tax credit to encourage youths to participate in active sports. Cross Country skiing is not only a perfect activity for youth but may now save you tax dollars!
