Ontario’s Top 10 Snowmobile Loops
During the winter season, Ontario is home to the world’s largest interconnected trail network—over 30,000 km of maintained snowmobile trails, giving you literally thousands of reasons to go sledding. However, for a plug and play experience on the trails this winter, consider these nine loops. The variety of trails, the availability of accommodations and services, the beauty of the natural surroundings, the vast expanses that allow us to escape the daily grind and get outside and be active—it all adds up to something special, and these loops offer just that.
For many of us, it’s not just the snowmobiling itself that does wonders—there’s something truly unique about spending quality time with friends and family in the great outdoors, surrounded by fresh powder, beautiful forests and ribbon-like trails.
Depending on your level of comfort and experience, putting together a viable snowmobile route can be a challenge. Just knowing that the basics can be relied on along the way can provide a much-needed sense of peace of mind that will allow you to truly enjoy your travel experience.
The tour loops listed below have been put together by snowmobilers and volunteers with a view to maintaining selected trails at the highest possible level of quality and consistency. Well-marked, impeccably groomed, and with direct access to enough fuel, food, and lodgings to enable snowmobilers to find them easily, these loops could well be the setting for your next great winter memory.
