Think winter, think skiing and snowboarding. But there is another alternative that is not only less expensive and safe but also counts as a fun exercise.
Welcome to the world of snowshoeing. High-altitude hiking trails which people flock to for enjoying the snow and fresh air also double up as snowshoe trails. This adventure sport is a low-impact aerobic exercise which burns more calories than running, cross-country skiing, or walking at the same pace. Continue the merriment of the festive season outdoors in your snowshoes with friends and family.
