- It’s fun: Snowshoeing extends your hiking or running season into winter. It lets you enjoy winter solitude and can be a social activity. All ages and ability levels can enjoy the sport together.
- It’s easy: As the saying goes: “If you can walk, you can snowshoe”.
- It’s inexpensive: Required gear includes snowshoes, appropriate footwear and clothing, and a pair of poles.
- That’s it. No lift ticket is required, it’s a good workout: Snowshoeing offers low impact, aerobic exercise that helps you stay in shape during the winter. It’s versatile: You can go easy or go hard. Plus, you can snowshoe many trails that you can’t ski due to the trees or low-snow conditions.
