Ski trail conditions are changing daily due to the weather. Trails will be groomed on March 12. and will be in very good condition with the fresh snow. There's still lots of snow on the ground, so enjoy it while winter lasts!

Snowmobile trails have maintained a base in most locations, and the riding is still good. Trails are hard packed and may be icy in some areas. Use extra caution on the lakes.

The west side of the Red Top trail is not being groomed for skiing, which makes it available for snowshoers this year. The Pickerel Lake area is also good for snowshoeing. Crust conditions make for great snowshoeing almost anywhere in the park. Backcountry skiers are exploring new paths on the top of the crust also.

Iron Range Trail & Virginia, Minnesota - Snowmobiling Information

Snowmobiling in northern Minnesota's Iron Range Region. The most scenic and best-groomed snowmobile trails in the Midwest await snowmobilers on Minnesota's Iron Range.

We offer more than 3,000 miles of excellent, groomed and well-signed trails that feature a variety of terrain and breathtaking northern Minnesota scenery. Our 500 lakes and rivers add to a fantastic snowmobile experience.

On any given day, there are more than 13 groomers operating on northeastern Minnesota snowmobiling trails, with at least six of them concentrating on the Iron Range region. And because of the tree cover on our trails, we're able to open earlier and stay open longer than most areas in Minnesota.

Check out our web site, www.ironrange.org for weekend and mid-week lodging packages at a variety of hotels, motels and resorts with easy trail access. Some even include a free night's stay. We offer accommodations for both large and small groups; spacious rooms, suites with fireplaces and Jacuzzis, and chalet cabins with full kitchens, fireplaces, laundry facilities, saunas and barbeque grills. There's no lack of restaurants, shelters and access to entertainment on our trails. Plus, if you want to try something "off-trail," this region has some of the best ice-fishing in the Midwest.
