Winter

When winter settles over Thunder Bay, the landscape transforms into a playground built for bold adventures and classic northern fun. Scale frozen cliffs with ice climbing, drop a line through the ice for world-class fishing, or hit snowy trails on a fat bike for a ride unlike any other. For those who love speed, snowmobiling and ice racing bring plenty of adrenaline, while skiing, snowboarding, and snowshoeing open up endless ways to explore the season’s fresh powder and forested beauty.

Winter here is also about embracing traditions and unforgettable creating lasting memories. Glide across an ice skating rink, catch a hockey game, or try your hand at curling for a true Canadian pastime. Take to the skies with snowkiting across wide-open spaces, or bundle up for the thrill of dog sledding through snow-covered wilderness. In Thunder Bay, winter isn’t something to wait out—it’s a season to dive into headfirst.
