Book a private session and you'll get this entire experience all to yourself--and up to three additional friends or family members. You'll enjoy more one-on-one time with the guide/instructor, more flexibility throughout the session, and a more personal experience for everyone who joins you. Price covers all costs for up to 4 people. Here's your chance to experience the serenity of a snowy winter wonderland by moonlight. Our guides will lead you on moon-lit trails blanketed by snow and teach you fun snowshoeing tips and techniques, including how to remain safe and comfortable as you experience the winter world in a whole new light.
