Jack Rabbit Johannsen would have been so proud. Ulysses Travel Guides of
Montreal has produced a winter stunner of a book…that will have everyone reaching for
the wax.
Sue Grimbly, Globe and Mail
…we now have accesss to a guidebook packed with hundreds of little gems that
aptly describe more than 200 of Ontario’s most interesting cross-country skiing and
snow shoeing locations.
Norman Goldman, BootsnAll.com
This guide details more than 200 of Ontario's best trail networks for nordic skiing and snowshoeing in Ontario. To research it, I've visited all the prime ski locations, including privately-run ski centres, conservation areas, provincial parks and nature reserves.
Most of the areas groom and trackset trails for skiers and mark trails for snowshoers to explore on their own. Several spots offer night lighting and a few even have snow-making equipment to make sure that the season lasts long enough. All of these features are noted for you.
For those of you who don't have the time to explore all these great options, I've clearly marked my 30 favourite locations with a heart symbol. These are the places worth travelling to reach. Often they include winter waterfalls, scenic views, cliffs or some unusual experience that you'll remember for years.
I hope that you'll use this guide to really get the most out of winter. Please let me know some of your favourite experiences.
