City of Lakes Loppet Winter Festival

About the event

Growing from a once humble cross-country ski race in 2003, the City of Lakes Loppet Winter Festival has come to be the staple event of winter in the North.

The City of Lakes Loppet Winter Festival is a two-day festival that includes a variety of Cross-Country Ski, Fat Bike, Skijor Loppet, Snowshoe, and Kubb events. The fun continues the following weekend with the Luminary Loppet (the Loppet’s largest fundraiser of the year!) on the second Saturday in February.
