Our travel habits happen to change with the seasons, and we’ll approach our trips much differently once winter arrives. Most people only set aside enough time for a traditional winter holiday, but if you want to sneak some day trips in, these three are a good place to start.
Christmas Markets
Christmas markets are a staple of the holiday season, and chances are you have one in your city or somewhere nearby. Set aside a whole day to pay it a visit, so you could have enough time to explore all the tiny festive wonders it has in store, from local food to Christmas-themed gifts.
Skiing Resorts
Skiing resorts often come with a high price tag, and spending an entire winter holiday in one isn’t an option for everyone. If you can’t afford it, but still want to do some winter sports this winter, a day trip to a local skiing resort will do the trick.
Museum Visits
The tricky thing about traveling in the winter is that you have to deal with chilly weather. If you’re trying to avoid it, indoor attractions are always a good idea. You can spend a day exploring museums in your city, but checking out bookstores and new cafés is also an option.
