There are many things to do in Niagara on the Lake I am pleased to say. Many people only see Niagara on the Lake as a Summer destination. Well, I want to tell you that it is certainly not and going there in a Winter can really be a lot of fun. Niagara in the winter is covered in snow, you can get wonderful ice wine, and then there is the ice wine festival. The Ice Wine festival is a really great event held just once a year that brings some of the finest wine together for a week of fun, food, and wine.
