“I would recommend sledders ride Trail 66 around Lac du Bonnet,” said Shelly Plett. “It’s a smooth, well-groomed trail with a great warm-up shack. This area grooms their trails lots, and they are always top notch. It’s great for families!”

Peter Koehn and his daughter, Victoria (pictured), enjoy going for rides through the Pinawa and Lac du Bonnet areas in Manitoba. Here they are atop the power station at Seven Sisters Generating Station.
“To get to Pinawa, we usually do the ‘loop,’ ” said Peter Koehn. “The trails that make up the loop are CT768 and CT769. The little extra trail that we took that day to get to Seven Sisters Power Station is PT66. And be sure to make the pit stop at Old Pinawa Dam, which is now a Provincial Park. It was originally the province’s first hydro electric station back in the early 1900s.”

Peter Koehn and his daughter, Victoria (pictured), enjoy going for rides through the Pinawa and Lac du Bonnet areas in Manitoba.
“The best reason for riding this area is the scenery—from open lakes to pristine forests, where the only sign of civilization is the trail you are on,” said Peter Koehn. “Just can’t beat that feeling, and it’s the best long winter medicine you can take!
“Our family rides usually revolve around food of one sort or another—garlic sausage on the wood stove at the warm-up shack or our favourite place to grab a burger or pizza, the Pinawa Golf and Country Club. If anyone was going to pay a visit to Pinawa, I would suggest a stop there.”
