There are two main sets of trails in the area, Burwalde Woods and Shannondale.
Burwalde Woods is the main facility used by the club, including the Jackrabbits. There are several kilometers of both classic and skate trails. Club membership fees support the operation and maintenance of these trails. Burwalde (the honey farm) is located between Morden and Winkler, three miles north of Hwy 14 or nine miles south of Hwy 23, directly across from Winkler Bible Camp. A donation box is located at the trailhead for non-members to contribute.
Shannondale is located a mile north of Thornhill which is 5 miles west of Morden. Situated in a valley, these trails wind through the forest providing magnificent scenery. Dave Lumgair, the proprietor, builder, and maintainer of these trails encourages skiers of all levels to come and enjoy. The trails offer a range of technical difficulty from easy (Yellow or Green trails) to very challenging (Orange skate trail). The Blue trail is a fantastic midlevel classic run that is a favourite among many. The two chalets, one at the trail head and one in the valley are normally kept warm on the weekends. Trail upkeep is supported by donations which can be left in the donation box at the trailhead.
