Snowshoeing in Transylvanian mountains

" If you can walk, you can go snowshoeing " is a popular and true saying. There isn't a long learning curve, it doesn't require a large investment--for specialized boots, fashion-statement clothing, lift-tickets and standing in long lines--and it doesn't require a lot of special techniques. You can start today, and have fun, immediately !

Personally, I find the nuances of snowshoeing to be intuitive. Not to slight established techniques, mind you, but I've been doing just fine for a number of years without any formal instruction.

Snowshoeing can accommodate a wide variety of activities--a casual hike in the woods, an overnight backpack trip, or an alpine climb--and can provide a workout to meet your needs, whatever they are. It's also a relatively inexpensive way to get the whole family out in it together.

One of the things that I like best about snowshoeing is that snowshoes are highly maneuverable, allowing me to go places where cross-country skiers and snowmobilers cannot go. I easily travel through thickly-wooded and/or steep terrain (where avalanche danger is not, of course). Another distinction between hiking in the other three seasons and hiking in the Winter snow via snowshoes is the experience of the quiet and serenity of the snow-covered landscape.

 

 

If you like to hike, you'll love snowshoeing. Snowshoeing is a great way to introduce yourself to winter backcountry travel. Whether your goal is to get out for a leisurely walk in the snow or go for a more physically challenging adventure higher into the mountains, the snowshoe course can provide the skills and experience you need.

The wonderful thing about snowshoeing is that it's easy to learn and lots of fun. If you can hike you can snowshoe. Don't hesitate to contact us for informations about tracks, conditions and prices.
