An all-inclusive winter family getaway

Escape to YMCA Wanakita in beautiful Haliburton, Ontario for a weekend your family will never forget.

This weekend getaway includes food, lodging and the equipment needed to fully enjoy and embrace winter.

Our Outdoor Centre staff provide a variety of age-appropriate programs, allowing family members to either participate together or independently.

Depending on weather conditions, activities include cross-country skiing, snow tubing, games of broom ball, snowshoeing and use of our high and low-ropes courses. All equipment for these activities is included. 

At night, your family will sleep in one of our winterized cabins, which are equipped with a private toilet and shower and are a short walk away from all activities and where food is served.

This promises to be a weekend your family will never forget. Dogs are welcome too!
