Minnesing Trails, Algonquin Park
Information
The Minnesing Trail network consists of four
loops. They are all hilly and unsuitable for small children and unfit
adults. The western or return side of each loop follows the old Minnesing
Road, where the trail is smoother and the grades are less steep. Cabins
are located at the start of the trail and on the return run of the second
loop. The trail passes through hardwood forest, with views of three lakes
along the route. Let your experience and ability determine your destination,
route and travel speed.
How
to get there
To find the trailhead
of the Minnesing Ski Trails, travel 23 km from the West Gate of Algonquin
Park, along the Hwy 60 corridor.
Directions
- The Minnesing Trail
network is well marked. Take along the map provided by Algonquin Provincial
Park. The Minnesing Trail has four loops ranging in distance from 4.7
to 23.4 km. The trail is maintained for back-country wilderness skiing
and is not groomed. Wide touring skis and large basket poles are essential
for soft snow conditions.
