Iceland is truly a land of ice and fire, and nothing captures it more than the transition of the iconic Gullfoss Waterfall from roaring cascades to icy, snow filled waves.
Not to be outdone, the mighty Niagara Falls is another iconic waterfall that transforms in the winter season. While keeping its roaring fury, it gains a bit of charm when the snow settles around its base.
Winter turns the stunning Lake Louise into a true wonderland, a requirement on any trip to Banff National Park, with a clean sheet of frost making this an ice skater's paradise!
The snow covered parapets and withered trees make it all the more alluring. Whether or not Dracula lorded over the ancient halls, we'd still love to spend our winter vacation in this monumental fortress.
