Facts
Snowshoes are a fun alternative to skis and help you make your way through the snow. Remember that the daylight hours are few and that having a headlamp/flashlight with you can be good. If you make your trip in the evening and want to look at the stars, we can warmly recommend that you also bring a seat mat to view the sky comfortably. It can also be good to bring a pair of ski poles with you when snowshoeing.
