Beginner to expert trails. Up, down, turns, mixed stands of forest and clearings provide an exciting terrain for the skier. The flow of the trail is Swedetown's specialty. The trails are groomed daily for skating and striding. 4 km of trails lighted until 8 p.m. Host to the annual Great Bear Chase in March.Trail Reports

Because of the rain and warm weather we will be suspending grooming for today. Taking the "Do No Harm" approach for now is our best choice.

Headed back to Swedetown on the second off day from US Nationals, skied a number of loops that I missed on the first day: Powderhouse, Pine Ridge, Len's Loop, and Tiger loop. Everything in great shape with a dusting of fresh snow coming day. Appeared to have been freshly groomed today. Lots of people out, but not crowded. Excellent ski, would highly recommend, especially for the Great Bear Chase races in March!

Always good in Swedetown. We had the last two days of very good skiing. There is leaf and pine debris but overall good track and well worth the investment. What a great resource for not only Michigan, but the Midwest. If you've never been, put it and the other trails here on your checklist. You can't go wrong.

Awesome ski today during an "off day" from US Nationals. The trails had been recently groomed and were in tiptop shape; smooth, flat skate deck and excellent classic track. We skied Momma Bear, Baby Bear, Ed's Loop, Birch, Cedar and Tamarack loops, found them all excellent. Good skis, no problem -- plenty of snow. And great signage, had no problem finding our way around the trail system. Also appreciated they had an online system to make trail donations.
