It also provides great aerobic conditioning and is a fun way to spend quality time with family and friends. With today's short lightweight snowshoes, any walker can enjoy winter hiking trails just be putting one foot in front of the other.
Just strap on a pair of snowshoes and start out from one of Wildwood Resort's cabins on a short trek. We're a great starting point for your snowshoeing adventure. If you prefer, there are many area trails within a short drive of the resort as well.

How to Dress for Snowshoeing
Layering is important to wick away sweat, keep you insulated and protected from snow and wind. Your inner layer should be of a wicking fabric. The middle layer on top should be an insulating layer of wool or fleece. The outer layer should be windproof and either water-resistant or waterproof depending on the climate. Hat, gloves, and sunglasses or goggles are important. Carry a pack with water, snack, map and other essentials. A cell phone is strongly suggested when hiking on winter trails.
