ACROSS CANADA

Under the guidance of an experienced musher, feel the exhilaration of over a dozen sled dogs as they propel you across the winder landscape. In Canada’s northern regions, dogsledding has been an essential mode of transportation and means of discovery for hundreds of years. Today, it’s one of the best ways to experience the Canadian outdoors in the wintertime.

Head to Canada in the winter to experience the true beauty of a winter wonderland. From the snow-crusted peaks of the Rocky Mountains to the crashing waves of the Paci�c coast, the entire country is a winter playground.

Although Canada is well-known for its skiing and snowboarding, there are countless other things to see and do when the snow falls. So if you’re considering a trip to Canada in the Winter (December - February), consider these 7 activities and attractions:

NORTHERN LIGHTSYUKON

When darkness takes over Yukon skies, the radiant Northern Lights come out to shine. Bursts of coloured light appear with dramatic ribbons of green and blue dancing across the night sky. Long, dark nights in the wintertime are the perfect setting for aurora viewing.

STORM WATCHINGBRITISH COLUMBIA

Dramatic winter weather and endless, unprotected coastline are the perfect elements for storm watching. A surfer mecca in the summer, To�no becomes a storm chaser destination as cooler weather sets in. Howling gales, turbulent seas and lightening make for truly spectacular winter landscapes.

ACROSS CANADA

In Canada, train travel is as much about the journey as it is the destination. Rekindle the romance of rail on an overnight adventure through the breathtaking Canadian Rockies, or across the country to cosmopolitan Toronto and the East Coast.
