Snowmobiling is Winter Tourism in New Brunswick
We would like to welcome you to the New Brunswick Federation of Snowmobile Clubs web site!
Winter is an inevitable season in Canada and in New Brunswick we continue to celebrate winter by snowmobiling. Even after the scarcest winter snowfalls in 100-years through 2006, New Brunswick was still able to claim over four feet of the white stuff in many regions.
Through a partnership of hundreds of snowmobile club volunteers, thousands of gracious private landowners and provincial Governments and municipalities eager to capitalize on actual four-season tourism, New Brunswick boasts over 7000 kilometers of snowmobile only trails. The first recognition, respect and partnerships began in earnest between 1993 to 1995 when then Premier Frank McKenna realized the economic benefits of winter - White Gold - and the volunteer’s passion and contributions to the provincial economy.
Today, snowmobiling is New Brunswick’s Winter Tourism.
At the conclusion of the 2004 winter season Tourism & Parks measured the economic impact of New Brunswick’s winter tourism. Snowmobiling by New Brunswickers contributed $120 million and visitors from other Provinces and States dropped $22 million, all from snowmobiling, a $142 million impact. In Canada only Ontario and Quebec can claim larger numbers.
Winter, snowmobiling and winter tourism is an inevitable season in New Brunswick. We hope that you will choose to join us in 2008.
