Canadian Birkebeiner Ski Festival, February 12-13

Since 1985, the Canadian Birkebeiner Cross Country Ski Festival has been about family, friends and fun. This year, we want to make it easier than ever for you to bring your friends and family together on the Canadian Birkie trails. For more information, click here.

It takes approximately 625 volunteers to plan, organize and run the Birkie each year. Some volunteers work year-round on a committee, while others volunteer several hours on the weekend of the ski events. For more information on volunteering, click here.
