Snow shoe hiking – a trendy variation in your winter holidays

Today, snow shoe hiking has become a popular winter sport as an alternative to skiing or ski tours. The ideal shape of the snow shoes distributes the weight evenly so that the feet will not sink into the deep snow. This gives you the possibility to walk cross-country over deeply snow-covered slopes and draw your own track in the snow. It is a great pleasure for the old and young and a good alternative to skiing in Kühtai.
