Cross-country skiing during the Christmas holidays for schoolchildren!

Cross-country skiing is usually done in the snow, but at Langlaufvereniging Gouda, you can also do it without snow on the largest cross-country ski trail in the Netherlands! It's a bit like skiing, but also different. You'll learn how to glide well on real skis and how to ski fast with long strides. You'll also learn how to descend small hills.

At the New Year's open house, you will first receive an hour of cross-country skiing instruction. After that, you can participate in a cross-country skiing circuit. Who can complete the course the fastest? There are also exercises on the hills so you can show off your downhill skills.
