Snowshoeing is simply winter walking made easier! Walking on snowshoes is an ancient method of winter travel, but today it has a new lease of life as a form of recreation. Snowshoeing is the perfect way to explore the mountains and valleys. It can be a magical experience of silent forests, beautiful mountains and stunning views
Snowshoeing using the new lightweight equipment has opened up a whole new world to those who previously thought mountain walking was a summer activity! It's not technical or complicated and allows access to a wonderful snow covered playground. You don't need any experience just some warm clothes and a sense of adventure.
Just to say what a great week I had. Very much enjoyed the company. I have a complaint: I was 2lb heavier when I got home than when I left! Once again, many thanks for a wonderful holiday. I enjoyed every minute of it.
We are delighted to tell you that the annual snowshoeing week for members of the Austrian Alpine Club already has bookings for the Traverse of the Chablais. A great journey across the mountains with your luggage transported for you between 20 and 27 February 2011. Please email for full details.
In winter we are based on the Swiss French border, near Chamonix and run trips in and around the area. Your destination depends on how many days you have and how much you'd like to do.
