The Canadian Birkie Ski Festival offers a weekend packed with recreational and competitive cross-country ski events for the whole family. Whether you're a seasoned skier or just starting out, the Birkie has a ski event for everyone.
In addition to the festival events, the Birkie also provides Birkie training programs to help you reach your goals.
