PRE-SALE PRICE: 10% OFF THROUGH DECEMBER 15 // The Saguenay Cross-Country Ski Club is back! This 5-week program is designed for both beginner cross-country skiers who want to learn the basics and intermediate skiers who want to improve their technique. The 1.5-hour sessions take place on the trails at the Centre le Norvégien, under the stars, with headlamps, and are dedicated to teaching classic or skate cross-country skiing techniques, depending on your preferred style. The goal is to learn, improve, and have fun on your cross-country skis!
We want to make this clear: this is neither a training session nor a long-distance run! The evening sessions focus on learning technical skills to help you build confidence and improve your glide. Afterward, the group will put what they’ve learned into practice on the trails at the Centre le Norvégien. This is the club for you if you want to get active, meet new people, and learn proper cross-country skiing technique.
Wednesday evenings for 5 weeks: January 13, January 20, January 27, February 3, and February 10.
Please arrive early so you have time to get ready and be ready to start the session at 6:30 p.m.
