Winter In Lehigh Valley

There are typically two types of winter travelers: those who flee cold weather and those who flock to it. In Lehigh Valley, winter can accommodate both of those as well as those who seek indoor fun to cure cabin fever.

Your entire winter wishlist is here. A cozy fire casting shadows in an expansive lodge? Check. Families snowshoeing and cross-country skiing amongst the evergreens? Check. Date night options fit for any romantic? Check. Ice skate safely on rinks in Lehigh Valley. Check. You can even ski and snowboard at nearby Blue Mountain or meander the best walking trails in the Valley. Warm up and relax at a health and wellness spa.

Lehigh Valley’s cozy accommodations, winter events, restaurant weeks, winter getaways, and low-season crowds will brighten your spirits— even during the chilliest days of the year. Unwind at a local winery, distillery, or brewery. Taste and purchase varieties like Chambourcin, Chardonnay, and Vidal Blanc or sweeter blends like cotton candy-infused white wine or bubbly peach mist, at wineries across the Lehigh Valley American Viticultural Area. The unique Colony Meadery honey-based signature spirit pays tribute to Arnold Palmer. Warm up with a stand out spiced rum made with vanilla, cinnamon, orange peel, anise, and cardamom at Social Still in Bethlehem, or enjoy Authentic Applejack at Eight Oaks Craft Distillers in New Tripoli, made with apple cider from Scholl Orchards in Kempton.
