When the winter season rolls around, we generally put on our lazy cap and hibernate because we are under the impression that snow = no fun activities. Don’t let the chilly weather stop you from having a blast this season!
Here are 5 must-try winter activities that will keep the fun going all year round. Plus, enter to win a $25 Visa gift card to get started!
This is the best way to balance between hot and cold temperatures. While the water keeps your body warm, the cool air gives that relaxing effect. Perfect for a romantic date or a girls’ night out, especially while sipping on a glass of wine!
You can never go wrong with a fun photoshoot! This is a great way to get priceless photos of your kids as well as add content to your social media accounts and/or blog. Grab your girlfriends, family, or significant other to capture those special moments!
If it really is too much to go outside, bring out your inner creative self by building an indoor fort. Take creative control and design a cozy space where you can watch a movie and enjoy delicious snacks with the people you love most. A great way to stay indoors during this chilly season!
One of the coolest winter destinations! Though there are only a few Ice Castle locations across the United States, it's worth it to plan a road trip to see one. Or check out if your town has similar activities such as sculpture carving or ice skating shows. If not, create your own sculpting project in your own backyard.
Yes, you read that correctly. Ziplining isn’t just for the warmer seasons; it’s a great way to feel that sense of adventure all year long. Without buzzing insects, this activity is ten times more fun, even in the cold. Check out winter resorts and family ski or tubbing parks. There are more ziplining locations open during the winter than you may realize.

Love snuggling on the couch with a book or good movie!
Watching it snow. Love snow covered trees.
My favorite winter activity is staying warm inside! In all seriousness I've never done any real winter activities, I'd like to try snowboarding one day
Skating, skiing, building snowmen
We like to make a big fire outside and roast hotdogs and marshmallows over the fire. We also have hot drinks like hot chocolate and apple cider.
Walking in our local park, around the lovely frozen lake, together with my hubby - then having hot cocoa at home snuggled under my cuddly afghan, watching an old "Columbo" mystery movie on TV!
honestly staying home and reading is my favorite winter activity. I have a lot of health issues and get sick easily.
I like to walk in the winter, summer is too warm for me
My favorite winter activity is sledding.
I'm not crazy for winter sports, but I'm looking forward to watching Winter Olympic Game!!
reading and campfires
Ice skating and tobogganing! 😊💕
Talking a walk in the cold.
Sitting in front of the fireplace.
We love to go hiking & take pictures. Especially of waterfalls. Also, it's a great time to go rock hounding at the beach!
