Embrace the cold weather this weekend and visit Minneapolis' annual Nordic ski event, the City of Lakes Loppet.The City of Lakes Loppet is a cross-country ski festival featuring the beautiful trails and lakes of the Twin Cities. In addition to the nine different races being showcased, there are many more fun events taking place both Saturday and Sunday, February 5 & 6. Take in the Snow Sculpture Contest, play some games at the Minnesota Youth Ski League SuperCarnival, or visit the heated tent in Uptown to take in some brats, BBQ sandwiches, and Minnesota's own Surly Beer. Finish your day with a beautiful night-time ski around Lake of the Isles, lit up with thousands of ice luminaries, plus a heated tent full of music and fun.
Whether you've been a Nordic skier for years or whether you shudder just thinking about being outside in that thin, tight nylon suit, everyone can find something to like at the City of Lakes Loppet.
