Wabos Loppet

The Wabos Loppet begins with a scenic hour-long train ride from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario to the lumbering village of Wabos. At Wabos, skiers begin an uninterrupted 27-km (16-mile) cross-country course that leads through the woods, over two lakes and several beaver ponds to Sheppard Lake, where tea and oranges are served. The rest of the course is on groomed cross-country trails leading to Norm's cabin at the edge of Bone Lake. There skiers will enjoy refreshments of tea and cookies. The last part of the trip takes participants to Stokely Creek Lodge for a festive celebratory barbecue and live entertainment.

Rate: $68.25 – $115.50, depending on when a participant signs up. Call Stokely at 705-649-3421 (local) or 1-866-786-5359 to make reservations.
