It is by far the quietest and safest way to approach the mountain winter; it is an activity suitable for all ages (minimum 10 years old) and physical forms. Snowshoes serve to move more easily and quickly on snowy terrain by distributing the weight over a larger surface, so that the foot does not completely sink into the snow and allows pleasant walks and routes through fresh snow. Routes are in direct contact with nature where we will visit valleys, forests and summits. Enjoy snowshoeing routes in Cantabria with Guias Picos.
