Beyond the commercial snowshoe centers, true aficionados of backcountry snowshoeing know that 70% of the county’s area is public open lands, including Rocky Mountain National Park, Arapaho National Forest, Medicine Bow/Routt National Forest and the Vasquez Peak, Byers Peak, Never Summer and Indian Peaks wilderness areas. Ask our staff, who can provide valuable information about permits and accessing these remote areas.

On Sundays from December through March, snowshoe tours are offered leaving from the Kawuneeche Visitor Center. Bring your own snowshoes and poles with large baskets or rent them from Ski Broker. Children under 8 years of age are not allowed on this activity.

The Tours are:
9:00am – Take an intermediate level 2-hour snowshoe tour with a ranger. This is a more rigorous tour with altitude gains of up to 500′.
9:00am – Join a beginner tour with a ranger.

Due to snowshoeing’s popularity, reservations are required for each of the two snowshoe tours above and may be made no sooner than seven days in advance. There is no charge for the program but a park pass is required. Call (970) 627-3471 from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
