Duluth Cross Country Skiing Trail Master Plan Moves Forward

DULUTH - Duluth’s Parks and Recreation approved a master plan for the city’s cross country ski trails Wednesday.

The goal is to repair damage, make them safer, sustainable and also have a solid plan for keeping them groomed.

"There's a large number of people that enjoy cross country skiing for recreational pursuits, for racing, just for outside exercise,” said Duluth Parks and Recreation manager, Kathy Bergen. “It is an important system in our park system."

There are 34 miles of trails scattered throughout Duluth.

The city council is expected to vote on the plan at the end of August.
