Winter Outing Ideas for You and Your GIrlfriends

Winter Girlfriend Getaway Ideas
By · Updated October 28, 2020
01
Hit the Ice

If you’ve ever strapped on a pair of roller blades you won’t do too bad out on the ice. Find a frozen lake near you and gather the gang for some gliding. You’ll laugh. You’ll fall. You’ll learn. It’s the perfect afternoon activity for a winter weekend.

02
Go Sledding

Release the kid inside you and head out to the nearest hill on the next snow day. As you whiz up and down the slopes let go of whatever is bothering you and give in to the fun. Rent sleds and round up the girls now.

03
Build a Bonfire

If you’re going to spend a lot of time outside, you better stay warm. Gathering the group around the bonfire is the perfect way to catch up. Smores and hot cocoa are optional, but sharing is a must!

04
Take a Ski Trip

Grab that ski-weekend flyer you saw posted on your office bulletin board and book spots for you and your girls. Whether you’re new to the slopes or pros in need of some practice, it’s sure to be a memorable adventure for all. Before you go, study up on ski safety tips here.

05
Split a Cabin Rental

Waking up to find a rustic winter wonderland outside of your window is the perfect way to indulge in a little winter R&R. A cozy cabin rental for the weekend won’t cost much when you split it three or four ways and it will be just what the doctor ordered if you’re all in need of some relief from a hectic work week. Check out Craig’s List for great cabins for rent near you – just remember to get a move on. The good ones always get booked early.

06
Enjoy a Movie Marathon

One of your girlfriends wants to see this movie. You want to see that movie. Another one had her heart set on seeing that one movie that’s been out forever. You don’t have to decide on just one, you can go see them all – together. Make a day of it and create your own triple-header. It’s guaranteed to be back-to-back fun. Just go easy on the popcorn.

07
Go See a Play

Beat the cold weather outside by spending the night inside a cozy theater. Grab a playbill and enjoy a local show. Afterwards grab a war meal and some wine at your favorite restaurant while you review the show.
