It’s only boating weather half the year. Here’s what to do for the other half.
While Lake of the Ozarks is a paradise built for warm weather, there are myriad ways to enjoy every season, even the cold ones! Here are a few ideas for what to do when it’s too chilly to go boating.
1. Go Caving
The Lake of the Ozarks has four of Missouri’s most stunning, open-to-the-public caves, and three of them are open year-round! The benefit of a winter tour through a Lake-area cave is that the temperature stays in the upper-50s: nice and warm!
Caves at the Lake: Bridal Cave • Jacob’s Cave • Stark Caverns • Ozark Caverns
2. Go Karting
The Lake area has always had a robust go-kart scene. And while there are fewer outdoor tracks than there used to be, when the weather’s bad, head to Miner Mike’s Indoor Family Fun Center. An electric go-kart race is the perfect way to burn off some pent-up energy!
Open weekends in the winter.
