Guided Snowshoeing
 
"Nothing is better than doing new stuff in a great place with fun people and a terrific guide. What a time! What a group! I was not ready to leave!"
- G. LoPresti, New Jersey
 

A Winter Wonderland

The quiet beauty of winter in Lake Louise & Banff is a delight to explore on a guided snowshoe trip! Numerous trails provide you with solitude and a unique winter experience.

The snow acts as a canvas, recording the tracks of snowshoe hares, pine martens and even the occasional lynx. There are hidden secrets too: beneath the snowpack are hibernating grizzly bears and a vibrant winter ecosystem fueled by mice and voles.

On a half day trip (3-4 hours) you will learn about these stories and many more!

Our clients say it best: "Thanks again for an exceptionally enjoyable 3 hours. Not only was it scenically spectacular it was also highly informative. We all learned so much about what goes on in the middle of winter, both over and under the snow." – the Hawards, Canada.
