Northern California Cross-country Skiing Trails
To help make cross-country skiing in California even easier, we’ve highlighted some information for our winter sports enthusiasts below:
Wolverton's trails access the General Sherman Tree, the largest living thing in the world, and the Giant Forest's popular Big Trees Trail.
Wolverton Recreation Area offers a snow play and sledding area free of charge.
Visitors can immerse themselves in Sierran scenery surrounded by Giant Sequoia trees with ranger-guided snowshoe walks offered on many weekends. Snowshoes are provided.
The Sequoia Natural History Association operates the high-country Pear Lake Ski Hut for cross-country skiers and snowshoers. The cabin accommodates 10 people, and use of the facility is available from mid-December to mid-April by lottery. The trail begins at Wolverton and is a six-mile overland trek to the cabin.
Of course, we’re always happy to help you plan your day, so don’t forget to talk to the experts at our Sequoia skiing and snow play shop.
