One of the best places to enjoy nordic, or cross-country skiing, is Castlegar. In fact, we would argue Castlegar has some of the best nordic skiing in British Columbia. Whether you're into relaxed cross-country ski sessions through untouched snow or fast skate skiing on groomed trails, Castlegar offers something for everyone. There are countless free areas to explore in and around the city as well as hundreds of kilometres of perfectly maintained trails at multiple alpine resorts and those belonging to the Castlegar Nordic Ski Club at Paulson Summit.

The famous Castlegar snow is dry and light, unlike the stickiness on British Columbia's West Coast, and we get a lot of it: over two metres (six feet) of snow falls in Castlegar every season. Plus, we're not as cold and cloudy as areas up North or in the Eastern parts of the province: we enjoy 292 days of sunshine a year and the average winter temperature here is -3°C: perfect for cross-country skiing!
