The trails are color coded to simplify travel, and they pass through communities where there is easy access to retailers for gas, service, food, lodging and supplies. One such community is Breezy Point, located on the shores of Pelican Lake.
In addition to great access to the trails, the Breezy Point community is home to a number of exciting Minnesota winter events and activities suitable for any type of traveler from individuals to families to large groups.
There is no need to worry about not having a snowmobile of your own because rentals area available to allow you to experience the sport. Gliding along the groomed and well-marked trails is a great adventure for every member of the family.
