The Wildwood trails are groomed for classic and skate. In recent years walking trails have been added to encourage physical activity in a variety of ways, and signage was added. Three main entrance sites are available:
Starting points include the corner of the Wildewood Golf Course (North Drive at Netley), with a good parking area next to the Tennis Club.
The corner of Netley and Oakenwald, with some on street parking at Netley and Oakenwald.
The corner of Oakenwald and North Drive, close to the Wildwood Park Community Centre, with on street parking.
The ski trails are tracked by CCSAM, and costs are covered by the Wildwood Community Centre through donations and a contribution from St. John’s Ravenscourt school.
Envelopes are available at the various entry points for people to make additional donations to help defray the grooming costs. Trail grooming costs ~$3500 every season.
Donations can be made out to the Wildwood Park Community Club, and an income tax receipt will be sent out for the supporting gift.
Contact Harvey Peltz hpeltz@mymts.net for more information.We thank walkers (and their dogs) for using the walking trails which are signed. Walking on ski trails (both the tracks and the packed areas) damages them. Your cooperation is appreciated.

Wildwood Community Centre 1 month agoYesterday’s ski on the skate track was very good with a firm base and ability to set an edge. The classic tracks were a bit more icy and, of course, would benefit from more snow. The City of Winnipeg Forestry Branch started some DED tree removal in a corner of the soccer pitch at the school.

Wildwood Community Centre 1 month, 1 week agoFrom Harald Asu on Wednesday evening:
Had a great ski at Wildwood today. (Only the golf course side) A bit of leaves and seeds on the trail. It would be great if the groomer had a chance to go over the trail. -

Wildwood Community Centre 1 month, 2 weeks agoThe Wildwood Trails are in good shape for classic skiing with new snow in the hard tracks. Several skate skiers firmed down the snow on the deck so it hopefully won’t blow away in the forecasted winds this afternoon. Enjoy!

Wildwood Community Centre 1 month, 2 weeks agoAfter the melt, the classic trails are very icy in the forested area between SJR and the baseball diamond field. Small section down to the grass on SJR field. Looking forward to more snow, but happy to be able to ski at all!

Wildwood Community Centre 1 month, 2 weeks agoI just returned from a skate ski around the Wildewood Golf course and the loop to SJR. Slow but easy to set an edge. Classic tracks are almost all skied in. Enjoy before the melt. H

Wildwood Community Centre 1 month, 4 weeks agoWe just skied Wildwood at lunch time. Be careful on the trails around the two rinks – the rinks seem to have been snow-blown in the last day, and there is muddy, gravely snow that has been sprayed on the trail. I picked out some of the rocks on the trail, but there might be some left. I got a big scrape all down one ski. Be especially careful…[Read more]
