Glide 'n Gorge 2026
Festival Details:

It’s okay to forget to klister your skis, but don’t forget to bring your appetite The Hancock Trails Club is thrilled to invite you to our annual Glide 'n Gorge event. It’s the perfect way to enjoy the winter scenery while sampling some delicious local eats.

The main route takes you along the Swedetown Creek, however you’re free to make the event as challenging as you wish. As you glide through the trails, our wonderful volunteers will be stationed trailside serving up fresh appetizers, warm soups, and artisan breads. And when you're back at the finish line, be sure to head over to the chalet for a variety of desserts!

This is a limited ticket event, so we highly recommend grabbing yours early. Advanced tickets are $20, while day-of tickets are $25
