We have arranged expert ski instruction at Snow Farm.  We'll make sure you progress from XC basics on your first day and explore the Snow Farm area in no time.  During the evenings, as we relax, the group can share their stories of progression with you to assist you in your progress.  We'll also have an extensive library and program of XC technique videos.  Over the course of the week, you'll progress to travelling greater distances and by the end of the week, you'll be able to decide which on of the Merino Muster events is for you.

Concerned about taking time from your ordinary sport?  Dont! - a week of XC skiing, with the demands it places on the upper and lower body will increase your fitness.  It's no secret that the sport's athletes are renowned as having the highest "V02 max" figures (a measure sports scientists use to rate a bodies ability to consume oxygen while exercising) of all athletes.  In fact, the highest VO2 max ever recorded was by Norwegian XC skier - and 8 time Olympic gold medallist - Bjørn Dæhlie.
You leave the week feeling accomplished, and possibly with a new passion - that is what we secretly hope for!
