A Holiday Snowshoe Hike
Strap on your snowshoes this holiday season and take on the snow surrounding the Selkirk Mountains! The snow atop the mountains gives a magical glow to Priest Lake and makes for a perfect Christmas-time hike. The snowshoeing trails in Hanna Flats are relatively easy and allow your family to explore the winter scenery comfortably.
Fun in the Snow
While snowshoeing and snowmobiling always guarantee adventure in the snow, we also enjoy some more simple fun! The shores of Priest Lake are blanketed with snow during the holiday season and make a terrific playground for the entire family. Build a snowman and challenge your family to a snowball fight; so much is waiting for you!
A Night Under the Twinkling Lights
Once the sun goes down, you can still enjoy Priest Lake’s winter wonderland by the firepit. Sip on some delicious hot cocoa while the orange embers glow, and you can gaze out at the twinkling lights adorned on nearby cabins by the lake. A sense of Christmas magic truly comes to life!
