You can skate your way through a fairytale wonderland at this magical ice trail in Ontario. With glittering lights, wintery charm and tasty treats, it's worth adding to your winter plans.

Located a road trip away from Toronto, the skating trail winds through a snow-covered amusement park filled with enchanting scenes.

You can enjoy the frosty views and twinkling lights as you glide along the glistening trail.

Storybook Gardens, located in London, is a park filled with fairytale–themed rides and attractions.

During the snowy months, the park hosts a Winter Glow event featuring a 250-metre skating trail that loops through the park.

It's a magical way to get outdoors and enjoy the frosty weather. The experience is even more enchanting in the evening when the glowing lights create a twinkling wonderland.

If you'd like to guarantee your spot on the ice trail, you can register in advance online. Don't own a pair of skates? Don't worry! Skate rentals are available at the park on a first-come, first-served basis.

After your skating adventure, you can warm up with treats like BeaverTails, fries, hot chocolate and more.

The experience is weather dependant, so be sure to plan ahead.
