Snowshoeing

Your snowshoes will help you make great progress through the snow.

Picture the scene – the forests and meadows have been coated with a layer of fresh snow. The sun is shining in the pale blue sky. It's the perfect time to strap on your snowshoes and make yeti-like tracks in the powdery white stuff.

Two beautiful snowshoe trails beckon on the slopes of TITLIS.
