Cross-Country Skiing and Snowshoeing

Part of the High Altitude Training Center, Silver Star's cross-country trails attract skiers from around the world. Many of them are Olympic athletes in training. The network of trails includes the adjoining Sovereign Lakes Cross Country system, for a total of 100 km of groomed and track-set skiing heaven, with several warming huts along the way. There are two fully certified biathalon ranges here. Lessons are available daily and cross-country ski camps are held in November. The 38 miles of trails at the resort are skating and classic groomed, and 2.5 miles are lit for night skiing. Guided snowshoe tours also are available.
