Winter Nordic Trails
NorthWoods offers over 20km of family-friendly nordic and snowshoe trails during the winter season. Trails are open 7 days a week — bring your own skis or snowshoes, sign in at our self-serve kiosk, pick up a map and head out to enjoy! Once the snowpack is sufficiently built up for grooming please check our Trails page or TrailHub for the latest trail conditions as well as information about the the Willoughby State Forest Nordic Trails which we groom.
All trails are dog-friendly, please clean up after your pet and remember to keep off the groomed area when using the trails without snowshoes or skis.
Residents of Charleston, Brighton and Morgan have free use of our NorthWoods trails year round, but donations are appreciated from all visitors to help support the access and upkeep of our trails.
New this year, we will generally be offering ski and snowshoe rentals Monday-Friday 9-3pm. From mid January through the end of February, we will have Winter Open Lodge days every Saturday, with rentals, a warm fire, and some events—stay tuned!

Land Acknowledgement
NorthWoods Stewardship Center respectfully acknowledges that we are on the ancestral territory of the Abenaki people – the first people of this land. The Clyde River Valley where NorthWoods is located was and remains an important link between the Memphremagog and Upper Connecticut River watersheds. Indigenous people from many nations live and work here today.
We recognize that acknowledgment is just the beginning of recognizing the history and future of indigenous people on this land.
Please join us in honoring their communities, their elders past and present, and future generations.
