What Is Snowshoeing?

       
          It’s simply hillwalking in snowy conditions. The people of snowy locations the world over have been using snowshoes for centuries to ease their progress on foot, and the ones we use are modern descendents of those original pieces of equipment. Snowshoes help by stopping us sinking in soft snow, and giving us grip if the snow is hard or icy. The snowshoes adjust to almost any boot size, and are very easy to walk in. After a quick fitting, most people are comfortable on their snowshoes and ready to enjoy their day in around 10 minutes.

How Hard Is It?
       
          Like summer hiking, we can make things as easy or challenging as you wish. Small group sizes and a flexible approach ensure we accommodate everyone’s needs and abilities. I like to find out what these are when you make contact so that, with consideration of weather and snow conditions, I can design the perfect itinerary.
           One of the beauties of snowshoeing is that it is non-technical; that is to say that unlike skiing for example, almost anyone can do it without technical instruction or time spent practising, and yet it gives us access to landscapes that go way beyond the limits of the piste skier.

What Sort Of People Go Snowshoeing?
          
           People of all ages and abilities enjoy snowshoeing, and my flexible approach to the outing means we can adjust distance, pace and terrain according to interests and aspirations. Wandering the spectacular mountain environment surrounding us, usually well away from the bustle of the main ski areas, excites most people with a love of open spaces, fresh air and the natural world. This may be particularly true of the less-enthusiastic skier, or those who are seeking some variety, adventure, or peace and tranquility during their ski holiday.
