We're considering trying this out when we holiday somewhere snowy. Although to be honest when I say "cross country" I mean more "get to the pub" because where we're planning to go, skis are the most convenient way to get around so we thought it would open up the area a bit to us, rather than wanting to go trekking into the wilderness? e.g. all the "footpaths" are ski-trails, and being on foot is actually quite limiting as the snow is many feet deep.
Is it something that takes a lot of learning and fitness, just to be able to stand up and follow an easy path? Or could we just rent some gear and figure it out on flat ground? A local guy we met said "oh it's very easy" but then he's grown up somewhere where skiing is like riding a bike in the UK.
