Dashing through the Snow!What a great way to enjoy the outdoors in the winter time, get some exercise and have fun all at the same time!
Showshoeing is just one of our many outdoor activities. Expertly taught classes and clinics cover everything you'll need to know before venturing out onto the trails (or off the trails), from understanding binding systems and choosing the right clothing to efficient, energy saving techniques for steep hill climbs. You may want to join one of our scheduled group snowshoe treks. If you prefer going out on your own but are not familiar with the terrain we can help you plan a route that suits your experience and confidence.
Snowshoeing is dependent on snow accumulation & weather conditions. Please call the Outdoor Center at 253-5755 for trail reports & changes to scheduled tours.
