Why Barrie Snow Belt?
Barrie lies in the heart of a legendary snowbelt.
Moisture laden winds from Georgian Bay meet the upland terrain and drop
more than twice the snow that falls in the greater Toronto area. Barrie's
snowbelt resorts, Hardwood Ski and
Bike, Horseshoe Resort,
Carriage
Ridge Resort, Mount St. Louis-Moonstone, and Snow Valley Resort, combine
this natural abundance with high tech snowmaking equipment to ensure you
