Cross-Country Skiing

Cross-Country Skiing

Min number of participants 1
Age 6+ yrs.
Safety support by adult Recommended
Min duration 1 h
Cost Medium
Environment Outdoor

Glide through snowy forests and open fields on narrow skis under your own power — cross-country skiing is an excellent full-body cardiovascular workout that lets you explore winter landscapes at a peaceful pace.

The Essentials

  • Learn the diagonal stride first before attempting skate skiing, since it builds the balance and rhythm the faster technique relies on
  • Dress in breathable layers rather than one heavy coat, since cross-country skiing generates a lot of body heat quickly
  • Wax skis appropriately for the snow temperature, since wrong wax choice causes slipping backward or sticking on the trail
  • Fall by sitting back and to the side rather than forward, to protect your wrists and avoid tangling with your poles
  • Start on groomed, flat trails before attempting hilly or ungroomed terrain, since control on skis takes time to develop
