7 Ways To Stay Active Outdoors in the Winter
Uncomplicated Ways to Embrace the Chill and Keep Moving in Winter
As much as I love hunkering down in the winter, there is something so refreshing about getting out in the winter, getting some much-needed Vitamin D & breathing in the fresh, crisp air! Let's talk about some ways you can take your workout from the stuffy indoors to the refreshing outdoors!
1. **Snowy Walks:**
Take a stroll in the snow. It's refreshing, and you get to enjoy the winter vibe. My favorite place to walk is on frozen Lake Waconia to Coney Island!
2. **Snowball Throwdown:**
What's better than throwing snowballs at your kids?! Nothing!
3. **Park Playtime:**
Head to a park and improvise a mini obstacle course. Jump over snow piles and keep it playful.
4. **Winter Hikes:**
Explore snowy trails for hike! Bundle up & check out the trails on Three Rivers Park District.
5. **Ice Skating Adventure:**
Lace up your skates and hit the ice! There is an outdoor rink located behind Waconia Ice Arena.
6. **Sledding Spree:**
Grab a sled, find a hill, and let loose. It's a no-fuss, fun-packed winter activity. My favorite sledding hill is behind Trinity School in Waconia!
7. **Biking in the Cold:**
Dust off that bike and go for a ride. Studded tires will keep you steady on snow-covered paths.
8. **Snowshoeing or cross-country skiing:**
Rent snow-shoes from Never Bored Adventures located in Waconia, MN.
