The Holidays are here and that meets cold weather and hot cocoa. What it doesn’t mean is that you can just stay indoors and ignore the beautiful world around you in Huntsville. We’ve listed out seven awesome activities for you, your friends, and your family to enjoy around the area this holiday season.
Take in the Dramatic at the Group of Seven Outdoor Gallery
This inspiring exhibit features 80 world-class reproductions of of famous artwork done by some Canada’s most renowned artists. In the cold of winter, these pieces take on a different light and they offer a wonderful and free afternoon’s worth of unforgettable culture and potential education.
Make the trek to the Dyer Memorial
While it can be tricky to reach by car, this memorial is a one of a kind tribute to a man’s deceased love. A wonderful spot for a proposal or an interesting day trip; the Dyer Memorial will stick in your memory long after you’ve left.
Bring Your Pancakes to the Sugarbush Hill Maple Farm
Who doesn’t love maple syrup? Pretty that’s an impossible question to answer and you won’t regret a trip to the Sugarbush Hill Maple Farm for its incredible syrup and detailed history lesson on this wondrous condiment. Pride emanates from the people working here and you can tell their passion for their syrup is unmatched.
Take It All in at the Lion’s Lookout
Similar to the Dyer Memorial, this one is a tricky one to find but if you make the trip it’ll be more than worth it. Lion’s Lookout offers the very best view of Huntsville and its surrounding area. During the winter it might be a little more precarious to reach but the view is probably just that much more tantalizing.

Combining a pioneer village, a diverse museum exhibit, and a stream train ride; this attraction is a must as you visit or live near Huntsville. It will give you an appreciation for the pioneers that settled the lands originally and you will learn just how resourceful they were to survive the cold and set things up all those years ago.
Hike yourself around at Arrowhead Provincal Park

With bonfires and an incredible ice skating trail, people can enjoy the beauty (and the nearby falls) even as the temperatures are getting low.
