Mens Snowmobile Mittens

As the nights draw in and the temperature drops, some of us dream of warm sun and sandy beaches, tropical resorts and big drinks with little umbrellas in them. But there's a group of people -- special, hardy people, who laugh mockingly at the winter chill -- who dream instead of heading north to Minnesota to revel in the snow.

There's no getting away from it; Minnesota is cold in the winter. But along with the cold you get a frosty playground, full of activities for the eager visitor who remembered to bring their hats & mittens. Whether you're an outdoors enthusiast, or a culture vulture with a taste for the arts, Minnesota's a fine place for a winter getaway.

Outdoor Adventures

Whether you like cross-country skiing, hiking, snowmobiling, or ice fishing, there are great opportunities throughout Minnesota for a winter vacation. With almost 20,000 miles of groomed snowmobile trails, lovingly maintained by local snowmobiling clubs in partnership with the state, snowmobilers can see the whole of Minnesota, winding their way around lakes, through forests, and across frozen rivers.

The State Parks are host to many miles of prepared cross-country ski trails, and in many parks you can rent equipment to give this relaxing and highly-aerobic workout a try. It's easy to pick up the basics of cross-country skiing in an hour or so, but don't be intimidated by the fleet-footed youngsters whizzing past you ... Minnesota kids learn to ski almost as soon as they learn to walk.

Ice fishing isn't actually the official state sport of Minnesota, but it probably should be. Many resorts can rent you an icehouse out on the frozen lake, the plushest of which are outfitted with carpets, tables & chairs, and a nice cozy heater. You can even rent a "sleeper" house, complete with bunks ... but most of us prefer to retreat to a lakeside lodge for a gourmet meal and a restorative beverage by a roaring fire.

The Culture of Winter

There's a range of cultural activities throughout Minnesota, but the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul are the natural destination for those seeking the best selection of artistic attractions. There are at least three nationally known art museums in the Twin Cities: the Minneapolis Institute of Art, the Walker Art Center, and the Weissman Art Museum.

Theatre lovers are well served by the Guthrie Theatre, which presents a repertory season as well as an annual production of "A Christmas Carol," and the Ordway which hosts touring Broadway shows. There's also the Children's Theatre Company, regularly recognized as America's premier children's theatre.

For classical music fans, the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra and the Minnesota Orchestra are the best-known of the rich array of performers in the Twin Cities, and like the theatres they offer both a subscription season and single-ticket sales throughout the winter months.

Whether you're looking for a family vacation or a weekend getaway with your spouse, Minnesota in the winter is a magical place. Cold -- but magical.
