A Midwest resort ideal for Nordic walking

Last month I had the pleasure of returning to Justin Trails Resort in Sparta, Wisconsin. Besides enjoying the nearby bike trail, which follows an old railway line through tunnels and small towns, I spent some time teaching and helping Donna Justin get set up to offer Nordic walking at the resort.

If you read my last post, you’ll know that Justin Trails has some wonderful and uniquely private cross country ski trails that traverse the lovely central Wisconsin hillsides. In the summer, these trails are great for hiking, and also encompass a popular disk golf course! Now guests and visitors will also have the opportunity to Nordic walk the trails, and snowshoe with Nordic walking poles in the winter.

Resort guests and new Nordic walkers!

 

Heidi and George, the Siberian huskies, can show you and your dog how to Nordic walk together.

If you’re looking for a getaway in the country, with accommodations that are cozy and well-appointed, delicious and healthy breakfasts, friendly and gracious hosts, charming pets, and trails that are right out your back door, Justin Trails is the perfect choice. When I wasn’t biking or Nordic walking, I enjoyed kicking back with a good book on the porch, looking out over the gardens to the fields and hills beyond. I hope you’ll treat yourself to a visit soon!
