  • Information booths on programs, volunteer opportunities, a gear sale, bake sale, ski waxing. Our first event of the season invites Yellowknifers to learn more about all the YKSC has to offer.

  • Get your skis waxed and enjoy a drink and snack on us while hanging out with other skiers while you wait.

  • Enjoy a free day at the club to ski with Santa, hunt for candy canes through the trails and enjoy tea, hot chocolate and snacks in the chalet.

  • Join us for a day of free trail use, free rentals, mini-lessons and a pancake breakfast to promote getting outside in winter.

  • Celebrate skiing with an all ages costume ski, an outdoor fire pit, hot chocolate and snacks. Trail fees waived.

  • The Frostbite 50 is a 50-km continuous snowshoe or ski event on ungroomed trails near Yellowknife.  You can participate as a relay with teams of up to five, or test your skills as a solo competitor. Volunteers at checkpoints and on snowmobiles will cheer you on along the way! YKSC members get a 25% discount (discount code will be sent to members before the event).

  • A wonderful introduction to ski racing, this two day event is for skiers of all ages and abilities. Race format includes Classic interval start and free technique mass start. Plus, we celebrate participation with cookie medals for all.

  • A family friendly event for skiers of all abilities on a specially groomed classic-style track starting from Vee Lake. The Loppet includes loops of 4-kms, 15-kms and 25-kms on Vee, Jackson, Banting and Walsh Lakes.

    Registration includes snacks at the checkpoints, loppet swag, and an apres-ski lunch at the Ski Club Chalet! 

  • Test your agility with an obstacle course through various challenges and terrain. As a late season activity, sometimes there are natural obstacles (ie puddles) on the trails. Nordic Cross is a wonderful event for the whole family as we say goodbye to the snow at the yellowknife ski club.

  • New in 2024/25, the Yellowknife Ski Club is excited to announce members nights. Join other members at the club every two weeks for an evening of skiing and socializing.
