Whether a quick weekend getaway or spending a week or more on the road together, these Canadian adventures could be the perfect way to reconnect and experience new things with your partner.
Take in the Aurora Borealis
One of the most breathtaking adventures for couples is a trip to see the Northern Lights in the Yukon. The skies light up and dazzle throughout the winter, thanks to the Aurora Borealis. There’s much to do the rest of the day, too, including snowshoeing or snowmobiling through the dense territory. If you’re a seasoned pro, choose to stay in a wall tent, but there are also cabins for those who want to use them.
Get Your Heart Racing at the Richardson River Sand Dunes
Make a trip to Saskatchewan for this experience. The Richardson River Sand Dunes are an enjoyable experience but not for the faint of heart. You can bring your ATV with you or rent one. Then, do some serious off-roading up and down the dunes. You can enjoy the artisan restaurants and shops in the area, too.
Find the Polar Bears
If you have a week or so for your adventure, consider making a trip to Churchill, Manitoba – one of the most special Canadian adventures. It’s often referred to as the polar bear capital of the world. If you love nature and want to explore the open fields and rolling hills of this area, it’s easy enough to do here. There’s even the Nanuk Polar Bear Lodge, known for its fantastic gourmet dinners.
Swim in Cyprus Lake Grotto
If you’ve always wanted to take a splash in perhaps some of the most frigid waters, you can do that at Cyprus Lake Grotto in Tobermory, Ontario. It’s about a 30-minute hike to the Grotto itself from the trail. Plan to bring lots of warm clothes and supplies. The Grotto is a sea cave, and the surrounding hiking trails are somewhat challenging.
Explore the Natural Beauty of the Icefields Parkway
The Icefields Parkway is a must for those who love the beauty of nature. Tucked into the Canadian Rockies, you can make this trip as long or as simple as you like. Beautiful canyons, stunning waterfalls, and ample opportunities to see the wildlife here. One of the best routes is to travel from Vancouver to Calgary, moving through Sun Peaks and then Banff to view the Joffre Glacier.
Enjoy Some Luxury in Quebec
Perhaps the adventures you’re most interested in are those that include a bit of pampering and fine dining. Make it a point to travel to the Hotel de Glace in Quebec. It’s pretty luxurious and breathtaking, and you can choose from one of the themed rooms. There’s just one catch. It’s beautiful, stunning, and frozen! As an ice hotel, you’ll enjoy majestic snow arches in this luxurious Nordic getaway. You can still enjoy cocktails, ice skating, soaking in a hot tub, and the amenities at Aroma Spa.
