Summer is coming to an end which means that fall and winter are right around the corner. This is exciting for those who enjoy the cold weather and the snow, but even if you don’t, there is plenty to do around the Lehigh Valley. Check out these cold weather activities.

Visit Blue Mountain Resort

Pack up your snowboard or your skis and head to Blue Mountain Resort. This mountain has the highest vertical in the state and also offers some of the longest runs in Pennsylvania for beginners. Blue Mountain Resort is also the only place in the Lehigh Valley area that has family-sized snow tubes, so you can all go down together.

Ice Skating

Head to Steel Ice Center for some skating. This facility offers programs for beginner and advanced skaters, and you can get out on the ice whether you play hockey, figure skate, speed skate, or you just want to glide around for fun. The Steel Ice Center is right in Bethlehem, PA and is easily accessible from Route 22 and Route 78.

Go to An Indoor Water Park

Pretend it’s summer even when the weather gets cold at Split Rock Resort. This resort features an indoor water park for guests of all ages. You can enjoy thrill rides, such as the Viper and the Amazon Blast, slide down one of the four-story slides, or play in the wave pool.

Enjoy the winter weather, or get away from it at one of these cold weather activities in the Lehigh Valley.
