Over the years, we’ve pretty heavily covered the many ways to get outdoors in the Lehigh Valley, from stand-up paddle boarding, to glamping, to river tours. But we’ve always focused on ways to celebrate the region’s outdoor activities when the weather is its most welcoming. This winter, you may feel tempted to stay curled up inside, but there’s so much beauty to explore and fun to be had. And with eternal goals for a healthier new year, we’ve rounded up all the ways to get you out of your comfort zone and keep your fitness flourishing! Find out where you can snowshoe, cross-country ski, ice fish and more this season on pg. 26.
And don’t miss our 2022 edition of Lehigh Valley Style Weddings. If you’re a local fiancé(e) looking to elevate your day with unexpected and unparalleled experiences, turn to pg. 37 for some our favorites! Think balloon arches, champagne towers, macramé and more. Then on pg. 44, hear from six local couples who are sharing all of their day-of details—including me! (You may have noticed a name change on this Editor’s Letter a few months back.) This is the seventh edition of Weddings that I’ve had the pleasure of working on, and after years of taking inspiration from the hundreds and hundreds of couples who have shared their special days with us, I’m so excited to take you behind the scenes on mine.
