47th Annual Geschmossel Classic XC Ski Race

Join us for the 47th Annual Geschmossel Race, which is part of the ZAK Cup Series. Originally staged during the winter of 1972-73, the Geschmossel is one of New England’s oldest citizens’ races. The race originated as a 6-kilometer fun race, and was groomed with a homemade track sled that was pulled by a rope from a grooming machine. Today this 15 km classic Nordic race takes place on the Ammonoosuc trail network at the Bretton Woods Nordic Center and attracts high-level Nordic skiers from around the country, including members of the United States Ski Team.
