2) Skate The Rideau Canal - Trying to stay active this winter? Have you ever skated down the Rideau Canal in Ottawa? Maybe this is the perfect excuse to finally visit Ottawa, tour the Byward Market and attend Wintelude. We hit up this winter festival and had a blast. Read about Winterlude and Things to Do in Ottawa here.

The Whiteface Lodge is truly a luxurious log cabin getaway nestled in the snowy Adirondacks. The resort features a three-season skating rink on-site, snowshoeing trails, bowling alley, indoor/outdoor pool and spa. You may never want to leave the resort - but the town of Lake Placid is so charming and full of lovely restaurants and an old movie theatre. Read about our visit to Lake Placid here!
4) Spa It Out - Does soaking in an outdoor hot tub surrounded by trees and snow sound good to you? At Le Scandinave Spa in Collingwood, Ontario, you can work your way through three outdoor hot tubs, a sauna, steam room and relaxation rooms. Add-on a massage or facial and you'll feel truly relaxed after a day at this year-round outdoor spa. More from our visit here.
5) Go Cross-Country Skiing - If you can use an elliptical machine at the gym, you can cross-country ski. We did it and so can you. It's literally the same motions and don't be intimidated by all that ski equipment - you can do this. We love the trails up at Horseshoe Resort. The hotel just underwent a major renovation, so make a weekend out of it and ski all weekend.

Great ideas - I already done the Spa one this winter and it was so lovely.
