In the winter, many of Edmonton's golf courses become cross country ski loops, and the Victoria Golf Course in Edmonton's downtown becomes a nordic sports playground! Cross-country skiing in the river valley is an Edmonton joy, and the Victoria Park Loop is a winter must. It's an easy and flat loop suitable for all - rent skis from MEC if you don’t have your own, then take in a sunny afternoon skiing with downtown’s buildings in the background. Plus, the Victoria Park Oval is a magical place to go skating in the winter. Pro tip: sign up to the City of Edmonton's facility notifications to find out when the tracks have been freshly groomed.
