Radventures presents: Snowshoe Explorer.
Our guided snowshoe tours offer an exciting way to discover a snowy winter paradise away from the crowded ski resorts in the Canadian Rockies.

Breathe in the crisp, fresh winter air and feel the powder crunch beneath your feet as we hike through forests, canyons and mountain passes. Along the way, there will be plenty of time for snowball fights & snowman making!
