Rocky Mountain Travel 
Beginner Snowshoe Tours
Tundra Tours invites you to experience a guided snowshoe hike in Rocky Mountain National Park. These trails are perfect for the little ones, grandparents, and those new to snowshoeing and want help navigating snowy trails and learning how to use snowshoes. There will be plenty of animal tracks and activities to entertain the littles, hot cocoa to keep them (and adults) warm.
This is considered a “half-day” hike. This hike will be approximately 5-hours round-trip, (time estimate includes check-in, driving to/from trailhead, breaks, and approximately 3-hours of actual hiking and activities). We will hike approximately 1.5 – 3 miles round trip.
Requirements: You must be comfortable hiking uphill and/or on flat or uneven surfaces, such as in rocky, dirt, crushed gravel, dry, wet, and/or or snowy trail conditions.
