No, unless you are a group of 15 or more, you do not need to reserve rentals. We have a range of sizes starting at a children’s size 8 shoe going up to an adult size 15. We are able to accommodate 100 kids and their parents at one time.
We have programs starting at age 4 (Ski Programs), although as soon as a child is comfortable walking you can most likely put them on skis. We have boot sizes down to size 8. If their feet are smaller we have “The Party Skis” that you can strap onto their feet.
We also have pulks (baby gliders) available to rent if you have a really little person.
When you are getting ready for cross country skiing or snowshoeing you want to think layers. You may start off a little cold, but trust me you are going to warm up in a hurry. It is still very important to wear a hat and mitts, because that is where most of your heat escapes. Try to avoid wear cotton as a base layer, since they will hold in moisture and make you cold; where polyester or wool will push away that moisture. Always remember to bring water to drink. It’s important to stay hydrated.
Unfortunately we are not open to the public for mountain biking or hiking. You are able to mountain bike the trails if you are a member of CORC.
We are located in Duntroon, 15 minutes south of Collingwood, an hour and a half to 2 hours from Toronto. Type in Highlands Nordic Inc, Duntroon, ON into Google Maps for accurate directions. Map Quest will not take you to the correct location.
No, we do not allow dog on our main trail network. But you are allowed to ski with your dog on Teals Tango.
