Lake Tahoe Full Moon Snowshoeing is the perfect way to explore the mountains and valleys in winter. Snowshoes have studs on the base to grip on firm or icy trails, and are designed in such a way that you walk ‘normally’. Tahoe Snowshoeing allows you to get away from the crowds, and into a magical winter wonderland of silent forests, beautiful mountains and stunning views. On Tahoe snowshoe trips we share our local knowledge about the flora and fauna, local traditions, snow science and how to choose the best route for the conditions. You don’t need any previous experience to snowshoe, just warm clothes, reasonable fitness and a sense of adventure!
Join our Full Moon Snowshoe Tour and enjoy the pristine Tahoe wilderness (snowshoe photo gallery) featuring avalanche-safe high alpine terrain.
“If I could give more than 5 stars I would. David took us on our first ever snow shoe hike, we did the full moon hike and it was absolutely amazing!! I’m used to hiking on my own so I was nervous about having a guide, but I couldn’t have found a better one. David is exceptional, he was timely, friendly, has a great sense of humor, was very patient (especially with my 12 year old son and his friend) and he is very knowledgeable. He pointed out different constellations for us, oriented us with our gorgeous surroundings, took some really cool pictures, answered all our random questions and provided a bunch of fun facts and information about the area and everything in it. It really made for an exceptional experience. Of course the views and surroundings were absolutely stunning. The moon lights up the forest at night illuminating the snow and trees all round you. We could see the entire lake surrounded by millions of stars. It was very serene and a wonderful experience. I would highly recommend!! Thank you so much David!”
PROTIP: Special departure tours are available any night of the week to suit your Lake Tahoe schedule. Please be advised that night time can be extremely cold. You must have extremely warm wind and waterproof outerwear, gloves and insulated waterproof winter boots. No street clothes, no street shoes or light hiking boots.

This was our family’s first snowshoe experience and it was amazing. Our guide, David, was knowledgeable about all of Tahoe, accommodating and understanding of our different levels of fitness, kind and truly enjoyable to lead us on this adventure. As a family who are nature and animal lovers, David’s tour allowing us the ability to feed wild birds right from our hands was magical. The views were indescribable and this is an experience that our family won’t forget, especially since David took absolutely stunning photos during our entire adventure. I highly recommend this adventure and I can’t wait to go back and do it again.
