Nordic Skiing
For those unfamiliar with the sport, cross-country skiing requires skiers to use their own locomotion to move across the snow. While this can be quite a workout, it also allows skiers to travel over terrain that regular skiing does not and can be a great way to see the beautiful backcountry. If you’d like to try out this invigorating activity, visit any of the Nordic Centers in Breckenridge, Frisco, Silverthorne, Keystone or Copper Mountain to learn more.
Snowshoeing
Another great way to enjoy the mountainside is by snowshoe. Rent some snowshoes and make use of the snow-covered trials that Summit County is renowned for. It’s a terrific workout and offers a great escape from the packed ski runs. Guided snowshoe tours are also available at the Breckenridge Nordic Center.
