KVR Youth Cross Country
Ski ClubSki Club 2024 is up and running! We will not be having weekly lessons, but there will be one ski skills class offered in January, along with several guided skis on the Reserve. Our instructors and staff will be available during those times to help guide kids, and help them learn to ski! While we only have skis available for children (up to age 12), we encourage your whole family to get out and ski together. Adult rentals are available from Bluedog Cycles in Viroqua, check out the rental drop down menu here: https://www.bluedogcycles.com/rentals
