Guided Snowshoeing
 
"Thank you for a truly memorable snowshoeing experience.  We loved the light-hearted insight into this beautiful landscape and its inhabitants."
- the Wards, UK

Half Day Guided Trips

The quiet beauty of winter in Lake Louise & Banff National Park is a delight to explore on snowshoes! Swishing through fresh powder, you feel your heart beat and suddenly realize how peaceful it is.

Notice how 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.

"I just wanted to let you know that I’ve had nothing but positive feedback from the people who went snowshoeing yesterday. All of them had a great time and said they would do it again in a heartbeat. Dealing with you guys has been an absolute pleasure and if we have the same event next year, you’ll definitely be hearing from me."
