skelonas 0 Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I was wondering if anyone knows of some good trails in or near Sapporo for cross country skiing. I'm not interested in paying for a full up "nordic center", but if there are any local parks at the edge of town that have trails, or even better, somewhere close by where snowmobiles frequent so I won't have to cut trail. Looks like I could get lots of miles along the river, but a more wooded area would be nice. Also, does anyone know of used sporting goods stores in town? Link to post Share on other sites
quattro 1 Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Takino park has some trail and no snowmobiles. Not entirely sure of the spelling. The Olympic cross country track also has a few trails. Not sure if there are any fees. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Don't know about the used sporting goods, but the Sapporo Sports store has very cheap stuff. Prices are reasonable too. Link to post Share on other sites
quattro 1 Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Is you want used most of the second hand stores usually have some items. Best place is a store cant remember the name at the moment I'll have to ask a friend but its located some where around s3 w2 ruffly. They have a good selection. Link to post Share on other sites

skelonas 0 Posted January 8, 2008 Author Share Posted January 8, 2008 Nissen sports is all very expensive new stuff- nothing used. I'm looking to get a cheap used set up for $50 or so. Can anyone reccomend a good used store? I know that "Hard off" is a chain that carries this kind of stuff. Is there one located anywhere is Sapporo? Link to post Share on other sites
