Edmonton Nordic Ski Club in Edmonton, Edmonton Capital Region, Canada | Skiing & Snowboarding

Founded in 1979, the Edmonton Nordic Ski Club is one of Canada's largest nordic ski clubs.   Edmonton Nordic Ski Club offers a full range of coaching programs including Jackrabbits for youngsters, Lynx for developing youth skiers, Cross Country and Biathlon racing programs for youths and adults, touring and loppet programs for all and adult instructional lessons.

In addition, the Edmonton Nordic Ski Club develops and grooms trails in Goldbar and Goldstick parks in east Edmonton and is completing it's Biathlon facility in the Strathcona Science park (17th street, north of Baseline Road, south of Highway 16 E).

Membership is open to all who enjoy Cross Country Skiing.

Over the past 10 years, the Edmonton Nordic Ski Club has developed the trail system in Goldbar and Goldstick parks. The two adjoining parks feature 10 km. of interconnected, illuminated ski trails ranging from the very easy to the more challenging. Recreational and competitive skiers enjoy these during the day or evenings, seven days a week.

In Feb. 2000, with the assistance of the Edmonton Community Lottery Foundation, the Edmonton Nordic Ski Club purchased a state of the art Bombardier Grooming Tractor.   Along with our heavy duty Skidoos, the Snow Cat allows us to maintain these trails and others in the adjoining Capilano Park, providing Edmonton area skiers with the best groomed trails in Northern Alberta.  Our grooming efforts are supported by the City of Edmonton, Community Services.

Edmonton Nordic Ski Club is also continuing it's development of the Biathlon Facility in the Strathcona Nordic Centre in the County of Strathcona.
