Winter is an excellent time to spend with friends and loved ones. Between shorter days, chilly weather and busier schedules, many couples can put a pause on their regular date nights. Don’t let the cold get in your way. Here are seven ideas to enjoy time with your partner this winter.
Go on a Winter Hike
A winter hike is an excellent way to get outside and enjoy each other’s company. It can also be an opportunity to take beautiful pictures together as a couple and to enjoy your local scenery.
Attend a Paint and Sip Class
Winter weather can mean saying indoors is preferable. On cold or wet winter nights, a Paint and Sip class is an excellent date option. Enjoy delicious wine and learn how to paint a new beautiful piece of artwork. Not only will you have wonderful memories but you also have a Memento that you can keep for years to come.
Go Ice Skating
Embrace the chilly weather by getting outdoors and unpacking your skates. Enjoy this quintessential winter activity with your partner; many rinks have couples skate hours. Hold hands with your partner and take a twirl around the rink. Don’t have an outdoor rink in your area? You likely have an indoor ice rink, which can be just as fun.
Bake Cookies Together
Many couples enjoy cooking it together for an intimate night at home. Winter is the perfect time to transition to making a sweet treat instead. Find your favorite cookie recipe and bake some magic together.
Go on a Winter Road Trip
Find a location for your ideal winter getaway. A cabin or bed and breakfast in the mountains is the perfect place to have an intimate weekend and take a walk through a winter wonderland.
Go Sledding
You don’t have to be a little kid to enjoy the feeling of sledding on the snow. Find a snow park near you and enjoy a free-spirited day of sledding or inner tubing down the hillside. Plan a picnic lunch of hot soup or chili in a thermos and you’ll be sure to have a wonderful day.
Get a Day Pass at an Indoor Gym
Active couples can miss the fun of summer weather, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t fun options available to you. Plan for a fun adventure with lots of movement by getting a day pass at an indoor trampoline park, rock climbing gym, or unique fitness class.
