Outdoor Sports Activities at Muskoka Woods

There’s no denying the benefits of participating in outdoor sports. Not only does playing sports offer a source of physical exercise and key life lessons like teamwork, but outdoor activity is also an opportunity for kids to connect with their natural environment. 

Muskoka Woods offers over 60 activities. Here are a few of our outdoor sports activities — from the traditional to the adventurous — that are offered in the fresh open air of Muskoka Woods:

Archery

A combination of patience, strength and accuracy will have kids excelling at this classic sport — and possibly splitting an apple like they’re William Tell. 

1 hr.; available in bronze, silver, gold or platinum packages

Ball Hockey

Game on! No need to worry about cars causing a stoppage of play during ball hockey at Muskoka Woods. Enjoy a game of shinny on our outdoor “rink” under the sun.

1 hr.; available in bronze, silver, gold or platinum packages  

Basketball

Calling all hoopers! Lace up your sneakers and bring your A-game to our outdoor basketball court. We the North? More like We the Woods!

1 or 2 hrs.; available in bronze, silver, gold or platinum packages 

Beach Volleyball

Nothing says summer like a game of beach volleyball. Lather up with sunscreen, throw on some shades and get ready to bump, set and spike your way to a ton of fun! 

1 hr.; available in bronze, silver, gold or platinum packages 

Golf

Foooore! Grab a driver, tee up and swing during this fun and informative outdoor activity. Who knows? Maybe the next Tiger Woods is attending Muskoka Woods this summer?

1 hr.; available in bronze, silver, gold or platinum packages 

Pickleball

Combining elements of tennis, badminton and table tennis, pickleball will have kids scrambling around our outdoor court during an intense rally. 

1 hr.; available in bronze, silver, gold or platinum packages

Soccer

Kids will have the opportunity to hit the pitch and bend it like Beckham during an hour of competitive soccer.

1 hr.; available in bronze, silver, gold or platinum packages

Tennis

I think we all caught tennis fever after Bianca Andreescu won the US Open last summer. Kids can serve up their best effort on our outdoor court. 

1 or 2 hrs.; available in bronze, silver, gold or platinum packages 

Ultimate Frisbee

Hammer throw the disc down the field to your teammate and run to your next spot to receive a pass for a score! New for 2020, ultimate frisbee combines all the great things about field sports into one. 

1 hr.; available in bronze, silver, gold or platinum packages
