Credit PIXABAY.COM With an eye on Minocqua Winter Park & Nordic Center becoming a year-round tourist destination, representatives from there updated the Minocqua town board Wednesday on plans to construct mountain bike trails at the popular cross-country ski facility. Last February the Ski Touring Foundation received a $5,000 room tax grant from Let’s Minocqua Visitors Bureau/Chamber of Commerce to cover half the cost of a feasibility study with the International Mountain Bike Association (IMBA) to develop a trail concept plan. “This plan will be the first of a multi-step process to add world-class mountain bike and fat-tire bike trails to the facility making it a year-round destination,” according to a chamber press release at the time.

Cross-Country Skiing: The 16 Top Resorts in the U S

Cross-Country Skiing: The 16 Top Resorts in the U.S. © (Getty Images) Cross-country skiing For snow lovers who enjoy traversing longer trails outdoors rather than flying down steep mountains or trying to navigate glades, cross-country skiing is a favorite pastime. While alpine or downhill skiing may be a more popular sport among the masses, cross-country skiing is a great way to get out and exercise in fresh air come wintertime. In this sport, skiers shuffle and glide (classic cross-country skiing) or shift their weight from side to side diagonally (skate skiing) to move forward along groomed trails. These trails are often wide and flat but can include some hills. You can use your poles to engage your core and help propel you faster on the terrain as well. Not only is it excellent exercise, but cross-country skiing also allows you to take in your surroundings and admire nature s beautiful forests, mountains and valleys.
