Weather in the woods

Although you will see the sun, the weather is cooler. Warm days but also be prepared for rain. You don’t need a heavy coat for this weather but you might need your sunglasses and a hoodie/jacket. It’s a great time to attend wine festivals or go hiking, mountain biking, and other outdoor activities. Winter can be a lot of snow but if you’re into winter sports then this season is perfect for you to come to visit. You can go downhill skiing or snowboarding but make sure to bring a heavy coat and gloves because the nights can be super cold!
