| The joys of an Ontario
winter travel getaway north into cottage country is a favorite leisure
time experience for many Ontarians, especially when there is a good
snow base for skiing, snow
tubing, cross country skiing, snowmobiling, and snow shoeing.
When residents say they are "traveling up north", or going
"up north for the weekend", the expressions usually means
they are going on a vacation package holiday or a day trip holiday
in the great white north of Ontario. The winter of 2005-06 is predicted
to be one of the best snow seasons in years. Your Ontario travel
package could range from a romantic weekend travel getaway at a
cottage resort with a fireplace
near Barry's Bay, or to the shores of a frozen lake near Sudbury
for a week of ice fishing. There are many Ontario resort properties
and resort destinations, resort lodges, bed and breakfasts, cottages,
day spas and country inns in Southern Ontario and
Northern Ontario to suit a variety
of tastes and budgets. Going north on Highway 400 takes Ontario
travelers into "Toronto's Getaway Country", where the
snow is heavier, starts earlier and stays longer. Winter sports
start in November and get better in December (Christmas
New Years Vacation Packages) and January, peaking in February
and finishing up in March, usually at the end of the family Winter
March break holiday. Winter sports abound as you approach the Barrie
Snowbelt, the sports are often included in a getaway package with
accommodation and meals- alpine skiing, cross-country skiing, ice
fishing, outdoor ice skating, snowmobiling, snowshoeing, snow tubing,
tobogganing, winter hiking, winter carnivals, and spring maple syrup
festivals.
