My husband and I had a wonderful new adventure with OVAP at Calabogie Peaks. It began with a chairlift ride up the mountain nearing sunset, then into a cozy hut at the top with a beautifully prepared cheese fondue, chacuterie board and delicious wine pairings. Then with headlamps and snowshoes provided for us we snowshoed down the mountain. Lucky for us the stars and moon were at their finest. Along the way we were entertained with bits of Calabogie history. To end the night off we all got together in Black Donald’s Pub for a hot Toddy and smores. We met some very nice people throughout the adventure who made the evening even more enjoyable. We will give it a go next year as well. A great way to showcase the area! Michelle and Ray

If you’re into good food, fine wine, adventure, and trying new things, I can’t recommend this experience enough.
My husband and I were looking for a fun and unique date night over the holidays and stumbled across OVAP’s Snowshoe Summit in partnership with Calabogie Peaks — and WOW, it did not disappoint.
We went with a group of friends and honestly had the best time. From the sunset chairlift ride up to the chalet, to the wine pairings, cheese fondue, and charcuterie in the cozy cabin made ambient with candles and romantic lighting, it felt so special and totally unique, unlike anything we’ve EVER done before.
After eating (and indulging in some amazing wine pairings thanks to our onsite sommelier ), our mountain guides took us on a nighttime snowshoe down the hill. It was such a cool, magical experience and really well organized — the perfect mix of adventure and chill. We stopped a few times along the way to learn about the region, folklore, and wildlife in the area.
We finished the night back in the main lodge with hot toddies and ended up hanging out with our awesome hosts just talking about how great the whole evening was, dreaming about our next adventures!
Seriously, there's nothing like this experience available out there. You won't regret it and the pictures and memories will last a lifetime.

My hubby and I had the most unique and charming couples date night over the holidays with our friends hosted by OVAP and Calabogie peaks. It was an evening of fun including a snowshoe excursion with a fondue and wine paring in an imtimate little cabin at the top of the mountain, followed by an informative tour guided snowshoe treck down the hill and finished off with a hot toddy and smores by the fire. The hosts were incredible and knowledgeable and really created the perfect atmosphere for an unforgettable experience.10/10 Highly recommend 👌
