Dogs are NOT permitted on our trail network (both our ski trails and snowshoe trails). Our 1 km Dipsy Doodle trail is dog-friendly- it heads south from the main stadium back towards the road accessing Dawn Montain.

You can connect Dipsy Doodle with the ski hill groomed trails along the roads and among the residences, which makes for a nice little ski outing with your dog. Please avoid having dogs in the stadium or at the Chalet.

A suggested alternative location for cross-country skiing with your dog is Cedar Lake road (not track-set).
