Winter Park has a few great options for cross country skiing with your pups!

We offer a designated marked 6 Km skijoring route in our main ski trail system which groomed for both skate and classic skiing which is available every day. Follow the yellow dog paw print signs.

New in 2024! The Wilderness Multi-Use Trails (Cedar Creek, Big Pine, and Tamarack Pond) are now dog-friendly! At 8′-10′ wide, these trails are a bit narrower than our other trail systems.
