10.Forest Hike with Snowshoes

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 27 reviews · 2.5 hours · from $101

“The group was quite large with 20 people, even the guides said it was one of the biggest they had experienced. We were glad to be able to roam around freely. The guide was informative but did not wait to share the information until the group was complete so others might not have heard his stories. We enjoyed it but did consider it would have been perfectly fine to do without a guide.”
