WINTER W GUIDE 2013 elcome to THAT OTHER Great Muskoka Season! Y ou haven’t played hockey until you play it on a frozen lake! Come winter, Muskoka becomes a pictureperfect wonderland of snow-blanketed pines, ice-covered lakes, and pretty rural settings straight out of a Christmas card. Were there’s no shortage of fun things to do in all that white stuff. Whether your idea of the perfect winter activity involves snuggling up in front of a roaring fire at a cozy resort or inn, or venturing out into the greatwhite-outdoors, Muskoka offers numerous winter recreation opportunities. Downhill ski and snowboard enthusiasts should checkout Hidden Valley Highlands Ski Resort, which gets an average 318cms of snow each season – more than enough to satisfy the 6500 skiers that hit the slopes every hour on its 11 different runs, the longest of which is 580m. For cross-country skiers, Muskoka has more than 250 acres of parkland, including Algonquin Park, Arrowhead Provincial Park and Gravenhurst KOA, as well as luxury resorts, all offering groomed trails of varying lengths. Many of these same trails are also available for the increasingly popular sport of snowshoeing: minimal equipment is needed and modern snowshoes are light and easy-to-use, making the sport fun for the whole family. Snowshoes can handle the deepest of snow, opening up the backcountry for winter hiking. For hardcore outdoor fans, Algonquin Park offers excellent winter camping opportunities, including rental of heated tent-like structures called yurts. Muskoka is also an important link in Ontario’s extensive snowmobile network. More than 1,600kms of trails crisscross the region, and for those who don’t own a ‘sled’, machine and equipment rentals are available from most marinas. Along with your snow- mobile, you’re also provided with a warm snowmobile suit, boots, gloves and helmet, as well as expert training before being turned loose on the trails. Seeking more tranquil outdoor pursuits? Most Muskoka communities have longestablished winter festivals, often hosted in partnership with area resorts. Other accessible activities include outdoor public skating rinks, a skating trail at Arrowhead Provincial Park where you can also rent skates, pond hockey, ice fishing, dogsledding, winter horseback trail rides, horse drawn sleigh rides, and curling. And, of course, the region offers many-a great hill if you want to keep it simple and do things the old fashioned way… all you need is a toboggan, and a flask of hot chocolate to help you thaw out. M uskoka is home to countless winter adventures! Muskoka Snowmobiling. In winter, Muskoka comes alive as snowmobilers visit the region looking for adventure in the great outdoors. Cottage country lies in the middle of Ontario’s extensive snowmobile network, and more than 1600 kms of OFSC trails crisscross the region, making Muskoka one of the most traversed snowmobile destinations in the world. Most area marinas and outfitters offer machine and equipment rentals, as well as permits and licenses. Many resorts also offer snowmobile packages for experienced enthusiasts and novices alike, as well as tours and introductory lessons. Local snowmobile clubs have maintained snowmobile trails in Muskoka and surrounding areas for over 30 years. The member clubs of District seven maintain a 1600-kilometre network of trails covering some of Ontario’s most scenic landscape. It’s not difficult to understand why Muskoka is such a popular snowmobile destination. As the first district north of Toronto with real, consistent snow conditions, the District seven trail network provides snowmobilers with a spectacular view of frozen lakes surrounded by snowclad hills, valleys and thick forests. Whether your preference is short loops or multiple day journeys, this large trail network will provide you with unlimited touring opportunities. Each route offers snowmobilers a different riding experience with a mix of scenic bush trails and wideopen areas. Muskoka is a hub of the Trans Ontario Provincial (TOP) trail network with a number of TOP trails intersecting throughout the region. Snowmobilers never need to worry about accessibility to services because a variety of businesses providing food, accommodations, fuel and repair services are located along the trail. District Seven’s large fleet of modern, industrial trail grooming equipment smoothes out the routes between communities. An extensive network of trail signs assist riders in finding their destination. Snowmobilers are reminded that Ontario Trail Permits are required on all OFSC Trails. Three day, week and seasonal trail permits are available at most lodgings, fuel or service locations. Visitors are reminded to always carry a valid driver’s license and proof of ownership and insurance when operating a snowmobile on OFSC trails. Come see the thick forests, a multitude of lakes, rivers, streams and hills of granite. We guarantee your snowmobiling experience will be exciting and scenic.
