XC Skiing On The Cadillac Pathway

Once the snow starts to fly our dedicated Northern Michigan Mountain Bike Association (NMMBA) – Cadillac Pathway Grooming Team strap on their helmets and head out and set some of the finest classic XC skiing tracks you will find in northern Michigan.   Starting from the trailhead you can choose distances from just over 1 mile to as many as 11 miles. There are varying levels of terrain encompassing easy, intermediate and advanced. The trails that are east of Seeley Rd (nearest the trailhead) will offer up easy to intermediate XC ski trails. Once you cross Seeley Rd and head west the terrain becomes much hillier for the intermediate to advanced skier. There will be something to please the entire family! We recommend that only XC skiers use the main Cadillac Pathway to preserve the tracks for those two skinny long boards. If snow permits, the trails are groomed at least twice a week and more if necessary. Look for detailed grooming reports here on our website.  Also make sure to like us on Facebook and follow us on Instagram. If you believe in what we are doing, please consider donating to our grooming badge program. Our volunteers are free but our expenses are not. Check out website for details.
