Snowshoeing is a fun and easy-to-learn winter activity. Snowshoes are designed specifically for walking on snow, and they attach to your winter boots using adjustable bindings. Besides snowshoes, essential gear includes poles and sturdy, high-top boots. While poles aren’t strictly necessary, they offer extra stability, especially on hilly terrain. Snowshoes come in various sizes—larger snowshoes are better for bigger hikers, and smaller ones for lighter people.
Snowshoe walk can easily be organized even in the backyard of your cottage. There are also many marked snowshoe routes in Levi Lapland. Remember to take the map with you even if you are moving along the marked route. Snowshoeing is a great way to experience Lapland’s winter landscapes.
