Escape the busy city this winter! Bid farewell to the next-door neighbors for the day with a trip to Nelson County. Enjoy the space around you as you shop away from the crowds. Tuckahoe Antiques is part maze, part jewelry box- you’ll love meandering through every treasure-filled room. Stop in at The Ski Barn for winter sports items and souvenirs. Once you have some holiday shopping taken care of, you will probably need some excitement.

You can start your day in Wintergreen by taking a winter hike at The Nature Foundation at Wintergreen, which features blazed trails and an educational center. At that point, head to the Wintergreen Resort Terrain Park. Both beginners and advanced winter sport enthusiasts can find thrills as they race down the snow-covered terrain. Skiing, snowboarding, and tubing are all offered at the resort. Avoid lines of people while waiting for the slopes- Wintergreen has five chairlifts and two lightning-fast, “six pack” lifts. If you’ve never skied or snowboarded in your life, don’t worry! Skiing and snowboarding lessons are offered at the resort for both adults and kids. Kids can also enjoy Wintergreen’s nationally recognized children’s programs, which include campfires, holiday weekend events, and of course- winter sports!

After a fun day at the slopes, enjoy a dip in the indoor pool or work up a sweat at the fitness center. For dinner, try The Copper Mine Bistro for both contemporary cooking and classic entrees. You don’t have to make a reservation, but it is recommended due to its popularity.  If you need more time in Nelson, (and you probably will) stay at the resort!
