The Quebec City Cross-Country Ski Club is teaming up with Centre Castor for the 2026 edition! Yes, the club will be operating through Centre Castor's magnificent network. The five-week program is designed for both beginner and intermediate cross-country skiers. The 1.5-hour sessions are dedicated to teaching classic or skate cross-country skiing techniques, depending on your choice of style. The goal is to learn, improve, and have fun on your cross-country skis! // SPACES AVAILABLE FOR CLASSIC SKIING ONLY - THE SKATE SKIING GROUP IS FULL
We'd like to make it clear: this is neither a training nor a long-distance session! The sessions focus on learning technical notions at the beginning of the session to build confidence and improve your glide. Afterwards, the group takes to the slopes to apply the notions that have been taught.
PLACES AVAILABLE IN CLASSIC ONLY - the skate group is sold out. Write to us to leave your name on the skate waiting list.
Monday evenings for 5 weeks: January 12, January 19, January 26, February 2 and February 9.
Arrive early so you have time to prepare and be ready to start the session at 6:30 pm.
