Snowshoeing

Snowshoes are an amazing way to get out and explore the Winter Woods and they also make travel in deep snow much more reasonable! The first snowshoes may have been crafted by our ancestors over 6,000 years ago. We begin by looking at a variety of styles of traditional snowshoes that have been used by people in this area. Then we use our set of modern snowshoes to hike the fields & forests of the Trent Nature Areas. This is not only a great way to enjoy the winter landscape, but also an invigorating experience that promotes fresh air, exercise & healthy living!
