| Winter Activities
| Snowmobiling |
|---|
| Winter in the Ottawa Valley means lots of snow and crisp temperatures - perfect snowmobiling weather for sledding enthusiasts. We offer snowmobile enthusiasts over 2,550km/1,580 mi of groomed Trans Ontario Provincial (TOP) trails and local trails that wind through picturesque villages, along abandoned rail beds, past old mine sites and ghost towns. |

| Dog Sledding |

| Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to soar down snow-covered trails behind a team of beautiful and athletic sled dogs? The Ottawa Valley is home to a number of dog sledding tour operators waiting to help you experience this uniquely Canadian adventure! |

| Downhill Skiing & Snowboarding |
|---|
| Our tree-lined slopes, challenging vertical drops (including the highest in Eastern Ontario) and gentle runs make the Ottawa Valley a great skiing and snowboarding destination. Most hills offer state-of-the-art snowmaking and grooming equipment, which means plenty of good skiing and snowboarding conditions from mid-November through March. Best of all, you don't have to drive more than 45 minutes from any point in Renfrew County to access great runs! |

| Horse Logging & Sleigh Rides |

| Just like Grandpa did! Draft horses are an integral part of our Canadian History. Here in the Ottawa Valley and the Pontiac you can learn how logging took place from days gone by. Or maybe you’d prefer a family hay ride or romantic sip of hot chocolate in a two horse open sleigh. |

| What could be more exilerating than taking the family out into the cool, crisp air, slapping on a pair of skates and gliding the day away on one of our well-maintained municipal rinks. Our skating season is generally from mid-November through to March (weather inclement). |
