Winter on the east coast of Canada can be a really great experience if you embrace the damp and bundle up. Here are some fun outdoor activities to try this winter.
Winter Hiking
Nova Scotia has some incredible hiking trails with picturesque views. Most of them are maintained through the winter months. Wear waterproof boots because if the trails are not frozen, they are bound to be wet.
Snow Shoeing
This is a great activity in February or March if the snow finally arrives.
If you don’t own snowshoes that’s okay! Here is a link to places in the Halifax area that you can rent or purchase rent or buy snow shoes . Some trails even offer rentals on site
Down Hill Skiing
Yes, we do call them mountains! They officially qualify and we take full advantage of them in the winter for skiing and snowboarding. (I take advantage of the lodge. I’m not a skier)
Family Fun
If your family is less into long hikes and mountains, here are some of my favourite things to do during winter that are fun for everyone.
When you get out and experience what this province has to offer. I would love to see what you get up to. Tag me on Facebook or Instagram when you do!
