Ice Skating
There is no better way to experience winter than ice skating in the fresh mountain air on a smooth outdoor ice skating rink. Ice skating is le crème de le crème of a winter vacation. It captures the simplicity that winter offers, bringing laughter and memories that last a lifetime. The icing on the cake, of course, is a hot cocoa before, during, and/or after the ice skating experience, so make sure you have your eye on a café or you bring a thermos.
