If you’re looking for fun winter activities to keep you occupied, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to experience something new, get active, and make the most of the cold weather at one of the several destinations around the Madison, VA, area. These destinations have something for everyone, kids included.
1. Book a Winter Staycation at Bryce Resort
If you can’t beat the winter weather, you might as well embrace it, and what better place to do so than at a winter resort? Visit Bryce Resort, located at 1982 Fairway Drive in Basye, just 90 minutes from Madison, and you’ll see winter in a new way. This resort has many activities, including skiing, ice skating, snowboarding, and snow tubing. The resort also offers lessons for those not skilled in skiing or snowboarding and has a full-service ski shop.
If you want to make Bryce Resort the first destination on your extended winter road trip, you’ll need a new vehicle that not only gets good gas mileage but has the space to accommodate all your gear, bags, passengers, and road trip snacks. The new Ford Explorer is the perfect option. This full-size SUV has plenty of features to keep you connected and comfortable no matter where the road takes you, can seat up to seven people, and has all the cargo space you need.
2. Go Ice Skating at Pentagon Row
Pentagon Row Outdoor Ice Skating is located at 1201 South Joyce Street in Arlington, just 15 minutes west of Madison. This outdoor ice skating rink is the perfect activity to check off your winter bucket list and is the largest in all of northern Virginia and is surrounded by area shops, including cafés and restaurants.
After you spend time with family or friends ice-skating on the 7,200 square-foot ice rink, you can explore the surrounding area. The rink also offers lessons for youth and adults and private lessons by appointment, and reservations are recommended.
3. Get Some Retail Therapy at Leesburg Premium Outlets
