What is Nordic Adventure Ski?

The Nordic Adventure Program is for 11 to 18 yrs olds (as of Dec.31st of the year in which the session starts) who want to be active, have fun and enjoy the outdoors. Our ski outings are focused on fun, fitness and building endurance.

Being part of Regina Ski Club we also help out with club events such as the Ski Swap, Waskimo and Regina Sask Cup Series. We also welcome parents to ski with us as it improves the experience for all in terms of pacing, timing and supervision.

Come adventure with us! If you have any additional questions, contact the Program Coordinator: [email protected].
