Fresh Snow!
Minnesota is known for its weather: chilly temps and snow in the winter lead to bright spring sunshine when everything comes back to life, warm sunny summers that flow into colorful brisk fall days. There’s something to experience and enjoy all year round.
When the forecast calls for snow, it’s time to bundle up, head outside, and embrace the chill!
Here are four ways to enjoy a fresh snowfall and create a memorable winter experience
plus a few ideas for warming up when you’re done.
Sledding
There’s nothing quite like the joy of feeling the wind on your face as you glide down a snow-covered hill. All you need is a sled and some warm winter gear, and you’re all set.
Sledding is a free activity that’s fun for the whole family and it’s a great way to get outside, enjoy some brisk exercise and fresh air while there’s snow on the ground.
Cross Country Skiing
Another great way to get some exercise outside is to hit the trails for cross-country skiing.
Carver County has a great network of trails available, and there are many locations that rent skis and gear, so you can give it a try anytime.
The peace and quiet of the woods, the swish of your skis, and the joy of being outside are well worth the effort you’ll put in.
Snowshoeing
Deep snow is no match for a good pair of snowshoes!
Bundle up, strap on a pair of snowshoes, and hit the trail for an unforgettable day in the woods. Snowshoes make it possible to explore areas that would be difficult or impossible to get to otherwise. They are a wonderful way to experience nature and get out and discover new places.
Snowmobiling
Looking for a faster way to get around in the snow? Then snowmobiling may be just right for you.
Local snowmobiling clubs take excellent care of the trail systems throughout Carver County, so they are in great shape and ready to ride. Whether you’re an aggressive rider who is looking for a challenge, or an easy rider out for a nice cruise, you’ll enjoy your ride matter where it takes you.
