Duluth Parks and Recreation reminds the public that hiking on city cross country ski trails is prohibited. For part of the winter, the public has been walking on cross country ski trails with ease and comfort due to the lack of snow but now all cross country ski trails are now packed and tracked for skiiers. Walkers are encouraged to use places such as the Lakewalk which is cleared of snow on a regular basis.

A reiminder in order to help maintain good skiing conditions all cross country skiiers are requested to follow good trail etiquette.
• Ski in indicated direction
• Leave pets at home
• Reminder hikers and dogs are not allowed on groomed ski trails.
• Try to fill any holes and smooth track if you should fall.

The City of Duluth has four cross country ski trails These trails provide a great skiing experience for every level of skier.
