Lake Tahoe 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!
One of a Kind Experience. Felt comfortable being in the middle of nowhere and looking at stars that seemed so close you could grab them. Just incredible. David was great. Communicated well. Greeted right away and off we went. The scenery was spectacular and he accommodated the pace of the group.
The Natural Dark Night Sky Inspires. Join us for a Lake Tahoe’s darkest and safest guided Dark Sky Snowshoe Tour.
“For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.” –Vincent van Gogh. Experiencing an unpolluted night sky (un-polluted by artificial light) provides perspective, inspiration, and leads us into contentment. The history of scientific discovery and even human curiosity itself is indebted to the natural night dark sky. Until recently our ancestors experienced a sky brimming with stars – a night sky that inspired science, religion, philosophy, art and literature, including some of Shakespeare’s most famous sonnets. The natural night sky is our common and universal heritage, yet it’s rapidly becoming unknown to the newest generations. Van Gogh painted his famous “Starry Night” in Saint Rémy, France, in 1889. Now, the Milky Way can no longer be seen from there. If he were alive today, would he still be inspired to paint “Starry Night?” Learn more: darksky.org

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.
