Snowshoeing Excursion


Title – Snowshoeing Excursion
Date – March 2004
Location – Morzine France

Extreme sports come in all shapes and sizes and although snowshoeing might not sound like an adrenaline rush, untracked heavy snow, extreme cold and the unpredictability of the mountains are no place to be unprepared; no amount of adrenaline will save you from the elements.

The wilderness of the French alps can become irresistible, but be sure to plan your route well, tell someone where your route will take you and when you’ll be back. Taking the right equipment is also essential for this type of activity; if you have the opportunity a large Rhodesian Ridgeback dog certainly fits the bill, leading the way making a track in the deep snow in front of us and allowed us to follow with a little less exertion.

Through our Gap Year and Independent Travel Safety & Awareness workshop we will prepare you for whatever trip you are planning and for whatever activities you may choose to undertake along the way.
