Join us for the ultimate winter adventure! Our most popular trip of the season is here - a mid-winter feast at the Scenic Caves Nordic Centre. Explore the breathtaking winter wonderland of the Niagara Escarpment before indulging in our signature Beer & Sausage Après-Ski, hosted in a cozy private log cabin. Vegetarian options and tea are also available. To make the experience even better, we’ve extended our stay at the resort, departing at 4:30 pm.
Sign up deadline is Thursday, Feb 26th at 8:00 PM
