Many people are surprised that regular snowshoe tours are more physically demanding than they expected, so we thought, "Can we have a more casual and easy way to experience a snowy forest?" With this in mind, we developed a plan that has no climbing, is not physically demanding, feels like a stroll, and although it is a short trip, it allows you to "experience a real snowy forest" (although that may sound a bit exaggerated, haha). Although it is the same length and time as a walk, you will experience a real and authentic forest. We hope you will enjoy trekking through a real forest, taking photos and such, even though it is only for a short time.
