Ski Trails

Bearskin Lodge Cross Country Skiing

  • More than 77 K of beautifully groomed cross-country ski trails through the deep woods. We are one of the Midwest’s top destination cross-country ski areas. This is how cross-country skiing was meant to be. Trail reports, maps, and general info can be found below.
  • Night Skiing—1.5 km of lighted trails offer ski buffs the chance to keep going after sundown. Guests call our night skiing experience “magical.”
  • Top notch trail grooming—Bearskin is a silent sports resort, specializing in outstanding skiing and snowshoeing.  We have made a big investment in high quality trail grooming equipment, and it shows. Most of our trails are groomed for both skate and classic skiing, by people who have been skiing and ski racing for decades — we know how a good trail should be groomed for 21st century skiers.
