Cross-country skiing in Golden is its own multi-day activity with a wealth of trails to explore. The Dawn Mountain at the base of Kicking Horse Mountain Resort has a 28-kilometre network of perfectly groomed trails that range from gently rolling beginner loops to challenging tracks.
The Golden Golf Course trail system has a series of maintained trails that are best skied in the middle of winter season. For non-maintained trails in the forest check out Moonraker trails, they are great for skiing with your dog.
