Enjoy one of the friendliest winter sports for beginners. If you already enjoy hiking, strapping on a pair of snowshoes and hitting the trail may be a natural progression for you. It’s a wonderful way to experience the outdoors but knowing how to start can be tough. When the snow starts falling, deciding where to go and how to snowshoe with safety in mind are a few of the obstacles. That’s where our Guided Snowshoe Trip comes in!
Snowshoeing is a spectacular way to explore Washington during the winter. Relax and let us plan an adventurous winter getaway for you. On the front end of the trip, we’re here to answer your questions and send you a packing list for the day. On the day of your trip, snowy landscapes and fresh air await you on the trail. Pack some hot chocolate and make it the ultimate wintery adventure. This is a perfect trip for couples, families, friends, solo snowshoers, locals, and visiting travelers, alike.
Our small group sizes make the experience more personal and we’re able to tailor the trip to your goals and learning outcomes. Our guides will choose a snowshoe adventure in the Snoqualmie or Stevens Pass corridor based on current conditions. Depending on how much you’d like to learn throughout the day, we can give you tips for snowshoeing, equipment selection and can speak to safety concerns when traveling in the winter.
Join one of our guides to learn the art of snowshoeing while enjoying the majestic beauty of winter in the pacific northwest!
