Winter wonderland by rail

Canada is known internationally as the Great White North, but in reality only some portions of our immense country are covered in snow during the winter season. To experience the magical transformation of a landscape when snow dusts tree branches and ices over lakes is unquestionably enchanting. Winter rail vacations are a way to journey into snowy regions whilst staying cozy, warm, and well-fed as you view the icy outdoors from large windows.

Renowned seasonal train trips

Premiere railways operate in Western, Northern, and Eastern Canada during the winter. Explore Jasper and the Rocky Mountains in snow by train, or travel Canada by rail to Churchill in Northern Manitoba, home to belugas and polar bears or east to destinations primed for winter fun such as Ottawa, the nation’s capital and home to the Rideau Canal, the world’s longest outdoor skating rink. Most Canadian communities have annual winter festivals and fun in addition to range of outdoor activities that include snowmobiling, skiing, snowshoeing, or snowboarding. And whether you’re enjoying Rocky Mountain vacations or exploring more easterly destinations, there are always opportunities to warm up by roaring fires and sip hot chocolate.
