About this experience
This snowshoeing experience in Rocky Mountain National Park has been my most popular activity because it is for women who are snowshoeing for the first time or women who prefer to snowshoe on gentle, mostly flat terrain.
Snowshoes and trekking poles are provided along with a 20 minute tutorial on how to use the gear.
This activity is a nice mix of views ranging from sub-alpine lakes, forests, sweeping mountain views, and wildlife.
