Enjoy a Winter Walk

When you take a winter walk in Ontario, you need to be careful!

Be careful when you take a winter walk

At least, that’s my theory.

Take a winter walk on a quite path

There are many wonderful walking trails for winter walks available in Ontario, but most are not set up for “normal” walking.

Take a winter walk on a path less traveled

For example, in our area, you can take a winter walk on the Georgian Trail.

go on to Georgian Trail

It’s okay for cross country skiing and snowshoeing.

Watch out for the Poison Ivy!

I guess these could be considered as a form of outings (your choice).

Try snowshoe walking

The type of winter walk I’m thinking about are the ones that are cleared. Yes, I am a wimp!

Take a winter walk with your BFF

However, I do like to go out, especially with Judi.

Purple Shy

In our area, especially in The Blue Mountains, there have a very good way of clearing and sanding the sidewalks, perfect for a winter walk.

Lighting the way

There are other “clear” places to enjoy.

Hard place to take a winter walk!

Unfortunately, the Beach is not one of them!

Winter walk at Lang Pioneer Village Museum

When we were living in Cobourg, we could go to Lang Pioneer Village Museum at Christmas.

Go caroling

And, as a bonus, enjoy the Christmas carolers!

The Blue Mountain Resort

Now, we have closer places to enjoy “clear” winter walk. The Blue Mountain Village Resort is always a great place to enjoy.

In the snow

So, when you are out

, make sure you take plenty of “selfies“! You will want to show your friends how much “fun” you are having!

In the mall, a great place to winter walk

As my father use to say and do, “go for a winter walk at the Mall“!

So, first, let’s take a look at a video that Judi (Scoop) and I made, see below! When I refer to “be careful“, I am referring to a winter walk outside, in the snow or ice.
