Opening Day – December 12, 2025

Nelson Nordic Ski Club kiosks and select trails will open on Friday, December 12, 2025!

We are thrilled to welcome back our members, staff and volunteers for another fun and eventful ski season:)

We encourage members to avoid the line-ups to register for a membership at the kiosk and sign up online. This will help save you, and others, time at the kiosks.

Membership Card Pickup

If you have waited until your first ski to pick up your membership card or annual sticker, please note:

New members (or if you don’t have your old card)

If you’re a new member, please come to the APEX Kiosk when you arrive for your first ski of the season. Our Apex parking lot is located at the base of Whitewater Road, 10 minutes south of Nelson. The kiosk attendant will take your picture out the window of the kiosk and then print you a card, which you will retain for this year and future seasons.

Run Like a Mother Delivers Another Big Win for Our Community!

We’re thrilled to share that Run Like a Mother has once again stepped up in a big way during their 2025 community event! The day was packed with energy, laughter, and a whole lot of heart—raising vital funds for local organizations across our town.

Thanks to a generous $3,000 donation from our incredible partners at RLAM, we at the Nelson Nordic Ski Club are able to continue fueling dreams and promoting healthy, active lifestyles through our youth and community Nordic programs. From cross-country skiing to snowshoeing, we’re proud to offer inclusive, accessible opportunities for all ages and abilities.

A HUGE thank you goes out to the RLAM team and every participant who made this event such a success. Your support means the world to us and the community we serve. Together, we’re creating positive change—one snowy trail at a time!
