Travel and Transitions publisher Susanne Pacher recently visited Barrie for a weekend excursion and found out about all the great winter activities that can be enjoyed in Ontario. From skiing, cross-country skiing, skating, snow tubing, snowboarding to snow-mobiling, ice-climbing and dog-sledding, Ontario offers are a variety of fun activities that people of all ages can enjoy. Ontario has more than 120 cross-country ski areas, offers more than 43,000 km (26, 000 miles) of interconnected, uncongested snowmobiling trails and one of the best known skating opportunity in Ottawa on the 7.8 km long scenic Rideau Canal.
