One of the best cross-country ski networks is at Sovereign Lakes on Silver Star Mountain.   It lies within Silver Star Provincial Park so it has a nice balance of trail and infrastructure development and recreational wilderness.   Even if you have cross-country trails in your area, a trip to Sovereign Lakes is worth a day or a weekend.

Take the turn-off from the Silver Star Road.   The road can be a bit steep and narrow, but it is usually plowed and sanded.   Nevertheless front-wheel drive or 4WD help on snowy days.   There is a good parking lot, a day lodge and a warming hut out by Black Prince.   There is a wide variety of trails in the area and you can find a flat or a challenging route.

A recommended loop is Passmore – Mystery – Black Prince – Mystery – Woodland Belle.
