This Month in the Ottawa Valley

Winter Activities

When the fall colours fade and the cool blanket of winter blows in, Renfrew County turns into snow country. Ontario snowmobiling started here and a quarter century of trail building and plenty of soft, powdery snow tansforms the Valley into a family fun paradise.

Downhill Skiing
Downhill SkiingOur tree-lined slopes, challenging vertical drops (including the highest in Eastern Ontario) and gentle runs make the Ottawa Valley a great alpine skiing destination. Most hills offer state-of-the-art snowmaking and grooming equipment, which means plenty of good skiing conditions from mid-November through March. Best of all, you won't have to drive more than 45 minutes from any point in Renfrew County to get a good hill.
Skating
SkatingWhat could be more exilerating than taking the family out into the cool, crisp air, slapping on a pair of skates and gliding the day away on one of our well-maintained municipal rinks. Our skating season is generally from mid-November through to March (weather inclement).
Snowmobiling
SnowmobilingWinter in the Ottawa Valley means lots of snow and crisp temperatures - perfect snowmobiling weather for sledding enthusiasts. We offer snowmobile enthusiasts over 2,400km of groomed Trans Ontario Provincial (TOP) trails and local trails that wind through picturesque villages, along abandoned rail beds, past old mine sites and ghost towns.
