A major snow storm heralded in the New Year in Nova Scotia and with it, a host of winter activities at Stonehame Lodge and Chalets. Our location on Fitzpatrick Mountain, Scotsburn, Pictou County tends to attract greater snow fall accumulations than other operations at lower elevations in the province.  Stonehame features several winter recreational activities to keep your heart pumping and your family fit.

Experience some of the best trails in Nova Scotia where you can snowshoe, cross-country ski or hike the trails (at your own pace). The ‘pond’ next to the lodge is always good for a pickup hockey game or a family skate. And the open fields of Fitzpatrick Mountain are the perfect downhill setting for sledding, tobogganing or snowmobiling.

Your family will love these outdoor winter adventures. Add some hot chocolate, a cozy chalet with a mountain view and well..winter in Nova Scotia can be great fun.. for anyone!
