As snow blankets the city in sparkling white, visitors can take in an authentic winter adventure. Here's a sampling of some of the unique activities visitors can try while in Winnipeg. NEW - Work on your "snow-vasana" at the Fire & Ice festival by practicing yoga on a frozen lake, followed by s'mores and wild bush tea over a roaring fire and craft-making at FortWhyte Alive. NEW - Two Canadian passions collide with invention of "Croki-curl" set up at The Forks, which blends the popular tabletop game of crokinole with curling. NEW - Pedal around town with ease by renting a fat bike available at White Pine Bicycle Co. at The Forks. Skate along the Red River Mutual Trail, one of the world's longest skating trails, test out your curling skills at one of the rinks on the river, and stop for photo ops at warming huts designed by architects dotting the trail. Try out cable snowboarding at North America's only cable snowboarding park and whizz down the hills while snow tubing at Adrenaline Adventures. Warm up from the cold with a steamy hamam treatment at the luxurious Ten Spa, or unwind in saunas and hot pools at Thermëa by Nordik Spa-Nature. "Surf" on snow during a kiteboarding session at Oak Hammock Marsh. Dine on a frozen river at RAW: almond pop-up restaurant. Festival du Voyageur, Western Canada's largest outdoor winter celebration, channels the spirit of Manitoba's fur trading past, celebrating the culture, art, food, music and dance of Métis and Franco-Manitoban adventurers. Sample downtown eats during A Moveable Feast: Winter Cycling Tour offered in early February, where you'll cycle along the river trail and enjoy cuisine with wintry views.
