Itinerary:

Well all head up to Barrie for some tubing and then snowshoeing at Snow Valley!.

After picking up our lift tickets ($20) we'll go snow tubing for a couple of hours. Snow Valley will provide us with the tubes we need. After tubing, we'll have some lunch and warm up, before heading back out to the snowshoe trails for the afternoon. You can rent equipment ($15), there are several trails to explore for a few hours, which range from easy to difficult. This is the perfect chance to snowshoeing a bit more this winter season, or to try it first time. All in all, it's a fun day's adventure!
