Snowshoeing is hiking in the snow with specially designed frames that prevent your foot from sinking into snow. This allows you to reach serene beauty waiting to be explored in a peaceful and invigorating way. Imagine walking through a winter wonderland, the only sound your breath misting in the crisp air and the crunch of snow under your snowshoes. Immerse yourself in the tranquility of the snowy landscape and discover a side of Falls Creek hidden from the hustle and bustle.

The beauty of snowshoeing is its accessibility to most. While beginners may find difficulty in learning to ski or snowboard, snowshoeing requires minimal skills and all ages and fitness levels are capable. This makes for a fantastic family activity of walking into the snow-covered mountains.

Now with the plan to go snowshoeing, it is just a question of whether you will go by yourself or on a guided tour. A guide will take you through the most scenic trails, share their knowledge of the local flora and fauna, and ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. For the more adventurous, various trails around Falls Creek are designated for snowshoeing. Pick up a trail map from the Visitor Centre, rent your snowshoes, and set off on your own winter adventure. If going without a guide, the Howmans Gap Trail winds through snow-gum forests, perfect for a relaxed exploration of the winter wonderland.
