Dawn Mountain Snowshoe Trails

December 12, 2024

The snowshoe trails are OPEN! Enjoy a stroll on the snowshoe trails. Included in your club membership. Here is a link to our trails fees or snowshoe trailmap.

There are still some wet areas. Please stay on the set trail to avoid getting stuck in the mucky marsh. Beware of pokey sticks of where the willows were cut (they are sharp). Use the trails at your own risk.

We do not allow dogs on any of the Dawn Mountain trails, including the snowshoe trails.

Please keep your snowshoes on at all times to the trailhead and on the snowshoe trail and when crossing ski trails as walking on the trails creates holes in the trail.

When crossing ski trails, please walk on the side of the ski trails and step over any ski tracks (grooves in the snow) to keep them intact for the cross-country skiers. Thanks!

Don’t forget to pay your trail fee (included in Golden Nordic Ski Club membership) to support the maintenance of the snowshoe trails.

 

Golden Golf Course Trails

Last track setting: January 10, 2025

Groomer report: Very good conditions with a few thin spots under the trees! Double-track set.

Please help keep the golf course trails dog-free as this ensures continued permission from the golf club to use these trails in winter for skiing.

Link to golf course trail map.

Please bring some cash (free for members of the Golden Nordic Ski Club) to deposit into the donation box (suggested $2) at the trailhead to help with the snowmobile fuel cost.

Please note:

  • The golf course is set for classic skiing only.

  • Please no dogs or walking on the trails.

  • There is no outhouse/washroom facility at the trailhead. The nearest washroom is at the intersection of Kicking Horse Trail and the Golf Course Road at the CBT trailhead.

Grooming at the Golden golf course is done by volunteers of the Golden Nordic Ski Club.

Thank you for your support!
