What is Snowshoeing?

Snowshoeing is a winter activity that can be enjoyed by people with or without experience in the sport. Snowshoes are specialized outdoor gear for walking over snow. Their large footprint spreads the user’s weight out and allows them to travel largely on top of rather than through snow. Adjustable bindings attach to appropriate winter footwear.

Snowshoeing is a good way to keep your heart rate and blood pressure under control while getting fresh air, exercising, and enjoying the outdoors. Snowshoes are a fun and very welcoming addition to any outdoor adventure. They allow you to really focus on Mother Nature’s beauty and enjoy the excitement of the overall experience.

Where?

Sethan village near Manali, Himachal Pradesh is one of the prettiest and a fantastic destination for back country snow adventures in India. With its natural beauty and contrasting snow-capped peaks, it is simply breathtaking. Also, it is one of the few places in Himachal Pradesh that remains untouched by tourists. The area’s primary attraction is its vast forests and dense vegetation, which provide perfect shelter for wild animals like leopards and bears. YoloO Life organizes skiing, snowboarding and snowshoeing from their base ‘The Wilderness Lodge’ in Sethan village.

Benefits:

Snowshoeing expands the potential for exercise available in the wintertime. As of 2006, at least 500 American schools, mostly but not exclusively in the Northeast have started offering snowshoe programs in their physical education classes to help combat obesity. It had the added benefit of being gentler on the feet than walking or running the equivalent routes, since snow cushions the foot’s impact.

For the same reason, it is less detrimental to the environment, since the snow likewise buffers the earth against the impact of so many hikers and campers, cutting back on trail erosion and other effects of heavy use.

Snowshoeing makes even familiar hikes different and new. It allows people to explore hard-to-reach places in snowy frontiers, and if the snow is deep enough, obstacles such as large boulders and fallen logs can be more easily bypassed.
