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 5 months, 2 weeks agoIt was a brilliant ski today, my first time at Wildwood. I am told that the skier groomed trails do not follow the usual routes, but I did not get lost. Good times, and the snow was fine!

Wildwood Community Centre 6 months, 2 weeks agoThe classic trails are really soft and pole plants can sink up to 18″ in sunny spots. Water is accumulating in low areas but not a problem yet. Need the temps to drop below 0 at night.

Wildwood Community Centre 6 months, 4 weeks agoThe City of Winnipeg Forestry Branch has indicated they will be working to remove DED trees on the Wildwood Trails. They expect to be active starting today or tomorrow for about a week. Ploughing is typically done to allow vehicles in. When complete we will try to rehabilitate the tracks as best we can to, hopefully, be able to enjoy some…[Read more]

Wildwood Community Centre 7 months, 2 weeks agoTrails in excellent shape this afternoon–I would guess the skating is still soft but the classic tracks were in great condition.

Wildwood Community Centre 8 months agoI am curious, does anyone know the lengths of the loops at Wildwood Golf Course?

The entire groomed trail including the SJR soccer field is 6.4 km

Thanks!
(And I didn’t realize that it goes on to SJR! I’ll check it out. I had only ever done the golf course loop and the little one across North Road so far…)

Wildwood Community Centre 9 months, 3 weeks 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 9 months, 4 weeks 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 10 months 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 10 months 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!
