There are two separate very scenic trail systems located in the Phillips School Forest.
The cross-country ski trails consist of approximately 3.5 miles of multiple loops ranging from gently rolling to steep climbs and winds through a diverse forest and an open meadow. The entire ski trail is groomed for skate skiing while loops 1 & 2 have tracks set for classic skiing. In the winter months please do not hike, snowshoe or fat bike on the groomed ski trails.
The single track system offers approximately 4 miles of challenging trails for hiking, running, snowshoeing and fat biking with multiple ups/downs and sharp turns. Trail users are asked not to hike the groomed single track trail system during the winter months without snowshoes. Doing so makes the trails difficult to maintain.
The Phillips School Forest trails are open all year.

The trail, located on Price County Forest Land, is very scenic and passes through both pine and aspen timber with gently rolling terrain. This trail is groomed for classic skiing and is a very good trail for beginner skiers. There are (2) loops on the east side of Hicks Landing Road and a 1 1/4 mile each way out and back section on west side of the road, across from the trail head for a total of approximately 4.1 miles of trail. Snowshoeing and Fat Biking are allowed to the side of the set cross-country skiing tracks (please do not ride or snowshoe on diagonal skiing tracks). We ask that trail users not hike the groomed trails without snowshoes during the winter season as this makes the trails difficult to maintain.
