The weather is getting wintry again. And while some of us will use this time for a long nap, there are great outdoor activities within driving distance to get the whole family off tablets and onto the slopes.
Tubing at Liberty Mountain Resort
Liberty has done us a service by putting in a lift so that you don’t have to hike up a snowy hill carrying a four-year old. They have hills for the littles as well as the big kids.
Whitetail Ski Resort
Ski, snowboard, and tubing all in one place! They also offer lessons for all ages. Take the family to Whitetail on Sundays after 3 PM, when they offer discounted lifts and rentals.
Cross Country Skiing in Herrington Manor State Park
With 365 acres, Herrington Manor State Park is one of the best places to enjoy the quiet peace of a winter wonderland. The cross country skiing trail is a beginner friendly 5.5-mile loop that joins Herrington Manor and Swallow Falls parks.
Ice Fishing in Deep Creek
You don’t have to wait until the summer to reel in some fish. Deep Creek is Maryland’s most popular ice fishing destination. Rent a cabin with the family and spend your mornings out on the frozen lake to hopefully catch some bluegills, walleye, or yellow perch fish.
Sledding in Patterson Park, Baltimore
Snow in Maryland can be hit-or-miss, but when it hits, the sledding in Patterson Park is great fun for the whole family. Located northeast of Fells Point, the park has great sledding hills and plenty of coffee shops and restaurants to warm up afterwards.
