THE EXPERIENCE
Snowshoeing is a typical winter activity, an extension of hiking during the winter season, and it represents an excellent way to explore the mountains at a slower pace, as an alternative to skiing. Suitable for all ages, adults, seniors, and children, this activity involves hiking in snowy mountain environments with the help of special snowshoes. These snowshoes increase the surface area of the wearer’s steps, redistributing weight and increasing “float”, preventing you from sinking into the snow.
How the activity is carried out
With this experience, we’ll spend a fantastic day in the snowy Brembana Valley, in the basin of San Simone.
It’s an easy excursion, suitable for everyone, allowing us to explore this area at a leisurely pace, always abundant with snow and dominated by the impressive profiles of Cavallo, Siltri, and Lemma Mountains. After meeting your Alpine guide, you’ll don the snowshoes and receive a technical briefing explaining how to use them and how to move in snowy terrain.
You’ll then be ready to embark on the winter mountain adventure!
At the end of the excursion, those who wish can enjoy a meal in a mountain refuge, where a typical menu will be waiting for you.
