Welcome
Menihek Nordic Ski Club is pleased to announce its partnership with the Canadian Ski Marathon in offering an official CSM training trail. Every February, this organization holds the longest running Nordic Ski Marathon in North America between Montreal and Ottawa. Admission into their training trail system has meant that Menihek Nordic Ski Club joins a select group of cross-country ski clubs and resorts across Canada and the United States, who offer high quality skiing experiences. The Club's 15.8 km training trail is the first one of its kind in Labrador and only the 2nd one in the province. MNSC invites local and visiting skiers to use this trail to train for the 2025 Canadian Ski Marathon held in February or the Virtual Canadian Ski Challenge which begins in January and finishes at the end of March. For more information, please go to the Trails Section - CSM Training Trail.
IMPORTANT NOTICE - To ski or snowshoe on Menihek Nordic Ski Club's groomed trails, you are required to have a valid pass. Day, night, weekly and seasonal passes can be bought here or at the chalet main office between 9 am and 5 pm. Skiers and snowshoers using club trails will be randomly checked for valid passes over the upcoming weeks. You must have the pass visible for easy checking. For club members who have not yet picked up their 2023-2024 season passes, please make arrangements to do so and ensure that it is easily visible.
