Kirkwood Cross Country & Snowshoe Center
The Caples Creek Trail system has reopened for the 2022-23 season at Kirkwood Cross Country after being closed last year due to damage from the 2021 Caldor Fire in time for the celebration of the resort’s 50th anniversary.
The Cross Country Center is open daily and group Classic and Skate Skiing lessons have returned this season, as well.
The resort also offers rentals for classic, skate and back-country Nordic skiing, snowshoes, pulks and fat bikes (reserve bikes in advance).
Trail systems | The Caples Creek system is located next to the cross-country center with a diverse array of terrain leading to Caples Meadow and Caples Creek.
Kirkwood also offers the Meadow System in the valley that connects to Kirkwood Village. The Meadow is a great area for all levels and offers 15km of groomed trails with breathtaking views of the surrounding.
The Schneider Trail System remains closed this season due to damage from the Caldor Fire.
