Led by an experienced interpretive guide, this half-day adventure blends gentle exploration with rich storytelling, wildlife awareness, and unforgettable winter scenery. No prior snowshoeing experience is required, making this an accessible and rewarding winter outing for all ages and abilities.
Curving out from the front range of the Canadian Rocky Mountains, the Bow River’s Horseshoe Canyon has been drawing thrill-seekers with its big waves and spirited class 2-4 whitewater rapids for decades.
