snowshoeing trails
Snowy hiking routes
Snowshoeing trails are paths designated or suitable for travel on snowshoes—the wide, flat footwear that distributes weight to prevent sinking in deep snow.
These trails typically traverse winter terrain where regular hiking would be impractical: The park maintains several groomed snowshoeing trails through the forest.
Unlike cross-country ski trails, they don't require a smooth, tracked surface.
