❄️ Step into winter. Slow it down. Explore more.

Snowshoeing is one of the easiest (and most rewarding) ways to experience the Southern Alps in winter — no skiing skills required, just a sense of adventure. From first-timers to seasoned trampers, it’s a chance to wander through a true alpine wonderland at your own pace. 

Whether you’re heading into the Two Thumb Range, Cass Valley or Aoraki / Mount Cook, our guided snowshoe hikes take you far beyond the crowds — into quiet valleys, snowy ridgelines, and unforgettable mountain views. 

🏔️ Why join a snowshoe hike?
• Beginner-friendly options — no prior experience needed
• All equipment provided (snowshoes, boots, avalanche safety gear) 
• Stay in warm, private mountain huts with fires and epic views
• Small groups, experienced guides, and everything taken care of

✨ Perfect for families these school holidays
Snowshoeing is a fun, accessible way to introduce kids (and non-skiers) to the mountains. Think snow play, cosy huts, and big alpine scenery — without the need for lift passes or technical skills. We can organise a bespoke adventure for your family — just ask us!

From gentle high-country adventures near Lake Tekapo to bigger alpine journeys at Aoraki / Mount Cook, there’s a trip to match your pace and experience. 

❄️ Winter is calling — come explore it with us.
