Snowshoe
Snowshoeing has traditional roots in Canada with many First Nations people and original settlers using snowshoes as a primary form of transportation during long Canadian winters. Improvements in snowshoe design, materials, and bindings have allowed Snowshoeing to gain a strong following among outdoor enthusiasts. Snowshoeing provides an uncomplicated introduction to winter outdoor activity.
At Whistler Olympic Park snowshoe enthusiasts can step on their snowshoes and leave directly from our Day Lodge for an enjoyable day on over 20km of maintained trails. Those that are just being introduced to snowshoeing or do not have their own equipment can rent top of the line snowshoes, over boots, and poles from our rental shop located in the day lodge.
Our trails system includes novice trails to scenic lookouts and picnic shelters, natural explorations deep in the coastal forest, and heart pumping climbs for those looking for a fitness outlet. Select snowshoe trails are dog friendly.
For those looking for technical tips or a guide our Sport school staff will be happy to provide a guided private or group programs.
