Ariens Nordic Center is an absolute first class and fantastic place with a great, challenging course and beautiful trails. The facility is amazing, with a beautiful building featuring a giant inviting fireplace and a variety of amenities including a beverage cart, pickleball courts, volleyball, and a patio. It offers a year-round outdoor experience with a 5k lighted trail network, robust snowmaking for decent snow, and a 20-point biathlon range. The staff is nice and great. It provides an exhilarating experience for all ages and skills, perfect for individuals and groups, with diverse program options and recreational opportunities. The track is groomed to perfection and the loops are of perfect difficulty. It is a great place for a brunch with great food and great ambiance.
Absolutely a fantastic place. I flew up from NJ to do a biathlon camp in October and most recently a Masters Biathlon race. The place is great with a challenging course and the people are so nice here.

I attended the Snow Crown Open fat tire bike race held here Feb. 7th., as a spectator. This is an absolute first class facility. Beautiful building with giant inviting fireplace. The track was groomed to perfection. Love this place! ❤️

I have been coming here for a couple years and have no complaints! 🙌 the snow that they make is decent and is always packed down with the machines. There has been many times I have seen a couple deer watching my workout too 😅 the loops are perfect difficulty just enough to keep you warm and challenge yourself. ⛷️
