Top things you can do when on a Snow Trip in Melbourne

Snow will finally fall and you can find it more interesting if you enjoy any or all of the following activities. So if you are planning a snow trip to Melbourne or a Lake Mountain Melbourne day tour, watch out for the following activities you can undertake:

1. Sledding: You can either buy or make a sled out of cardboard to enjoy a day in the snow down hills while cladding hats, gloves or mittens, snow pants, winter jacket, snow boots.

2. Shovel Racing: In this case of snow sport, participants slide downhill on an upturned shovel using the handle to steer. This activity can be as interesting as or even more interesting than sledding down hills although you require knowing some of the precautions you should take to minimize the dangers and accidents.

3. Skate Skiing: You can either choose classic and skate skiing. Classic involves a mellow jaunt on a trail through the woods while skate skiing, which is almost more similar to ice skating than skiing, happens on wide groomed trails and is more of a killer workout than a nature walk. It also requires balance, skill, and a serious cardio output as you transfer weight from one ski to the other.

4. Curling: This is one of the things you can do while on a Lake mountain Melbourne day tour. It involves sliding large stones across a sheet of ice towards a target. It requires much accuracy like golf and is engaging as all (from the curler to the sweeper) the team participate.

5. Snow Kiting: It resembles kite boarding and the activity will let you glide over snow and ice using wind power and a kite. You can start with a small trainer kite and learn from someone with the experience with this sport.

6. Snowshoeing: This one is more considerate for those who like hiking. Another faster version of this sport is known as snowshoe racing and is recommended for those after more of a cardio workout than a scenic stroll. Running in snowshoes also spikes your heart rate due to the increased resistance and this would be a very serious winter workout.

7. Do a Snowball Fight or build a Snowman: A snowball fight can be engaging for kids and so will building a snowman while on a snow trip in Melbourne. These are some of the simple things you can do while waiting for other activities etc.

Besides, you can, together with kids, build snow fort for a hideout using a brick mold builder. You can also paint the snow (snow graffiti using food coloring to decorate the white canvas), look for animal prints (rabbit, deer prints e.t.c.), blow bubbles and watch them freeze on the wand, and many other small but funny things.
