ENGNE was created by three local ski clubs and a race organization to host, organize, and promote major events and competitions in cross-country skiing and related sports. We enrich the experience for participants and fans, promote healthy lifestyle, amateur and competitive sport, and bolster the reputation of Gatineau and the National Capital Region as a sports and cultural destination.

ENGNE has the objective and mandate to present events that are as eco-friendly as possible. We ask all participants to reduce usage of single use plastics, styrofoam, packaging and containers they will bring on the competition site. We ask that you sort and dispose of all wastes in the proper recycling, composting and waste bins located at several locations on site to collect wastes. We thank you for helping make a greener planet.

ENGNE believes that everyone has the right to a safe and inclusive environment, free from maltreatment. If you are experiencing, or you suspect someone else is experiencing, abuse, discrimination, violence or other forms of maltreatment, contact the Canadian Sport Helpline or the onsite SafeSport officer. These individuals can connect you with support and help you file a complaint. For emergencies, call 911.

ENGNE respectfully acknowledges that the lands on which we live and ski are the traditional unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishnaabeg People. We are grateful to have the opportunity to be present in this territory. We share a common respect for our natural environment that provides us the privilege of using the topography of mother earth and the snow that falls from the sky to enjoy our chosen activity of cross country skiing.
