Don't Hi-Bearnate! Embrace Winter (it's not that cold)
Embrace winter this year with a visit to the Hills of Headwaters. If ice-fishing is on your list of winter activities but you don’t have time for a 3 hour drive, Island Lake Conservation Area in Orangeville offers ice-fishing 7 days/week and you can even rent a hut! (ice conditions permitting).
For those with more tender sensibilities, enjoy a winter stroll through our heritage villages or indulge in any one of our dining, arts and theatre or spa experiences.
Golfers are also invited to experience winter in the Hills at our indoor golf facility: Parfect Conditions OR how about getting a foursome together for the 2nd annual Chilly Willy tournament hosted by the Amaranth Lions Club at Lynbrook Golf on February 11th. Get going with all our recreation options!
