Another easy day or weekend trip from Toronto is north to Muskoka. The route is simple, yet stunning. All you need to do is take Highway 400 north until it splits and then choose Highway-11 towards Gravenhurst. Whether you’re heading to a family cottage or one of the many posh resorts, remember to pack some cozy sweaters to beat the chill.
