Winter’s not officially started yet. But, before long, we’ll probably all be suffering from a bit of cabin fever, aching for those warm spring days when snow, ice, and frigid temperatures no longer force us indoors. While we may not have a cure for cabin fever, we can certainly find ways to add some fun and adventure to winter. Here are eight indoor adventures in Missouri that are perfect for winter.
Missing those hot summer days, lounging by the pool? Enjoy a bit of summer in the middle of winter at Castle Rock Resort & Waterpark, which boasts a 600-foot lazy river. But, that’s just the beginning. Spend the day zipping down waterslides, shooting hoops in the pool, and standing under a 500-gallon tipping bucket.
Castle Resort & Waterpark is located at 3001 Green Mountain Dr., Branson, MO 65616.

Spend an action-packed day at the massive 60,000-square foot trampoline park Flying Spider. Jump on trampolines. Challenge yourself to the ninja agility course, which sits over foam pits (so no worries about falling!). And, play a vigorous game of dodge ball at the indoor adventure park.
Flying Spider is located at 14820 Manchester Rd., Ballwin, MO 63011.
