Summer Fun Activities
Visit a Winter Playground
If you are after the quintessential Muskoka winter adventure, look no further than Huntsville’s Arrowhead Provincial Park. The park’s star attraction is the winter skating trail. Bring your skates or rent them at the park and glide through 1.3 km of snow covered forest. Friday and Saturday’s Fire and Ice Nights are pure magic, with the entire trail lit by torches. However, Arrowhead has so much more to offer in winter than just the ice trail. The park grooms and maintains more than 28km of classic and 16km of skate Nordic ski trails for you to enjoy. There are a variety of trails for hiking and snowshoeing including the popular Stubbs Falls trail. All you need to bring are your winter gear and your sense of adventure!
