Snowmobiling is vastly important to Nipawin’s economy, and culture. Over 300 kilometres of groomed trails crisscross the area, including the Trans-Canadian Snowmobile Trail. The groomed trails provide residents and visitors with safe and enjoyable snowmobiling.
In addition to local groomed trails and the Trans-Canadian Snowmobile Trail, snowmobilers can also enjoy a safe river crossing at Nipawin’s Francois-Finlay Dam. The crossing was officially opened in 2004, and was spearheaded by the Nipawin Economic Development & Tourism Department in partnership with the RCMP, the Elks, Twin Lakes Trail Blazers Snowmobile Club, SaskPower, and the Nipawin Economic Development Committee.
The Twin Lakes Trail Blazers is a local group for snowmobile enthusiasts. The Trail Blazers create and maintain over 300 kilometres of groomed trails in the Nipawin area.
The Nipawin Elks, in coordination with the provincial Elks and the RCMP, hold an annual P.E.A.C.E. 100 rally, adding to Nipawin’s reputation as an excellent winter recreation destination.
