All given times include any transfer time.

An easy and calming snowshoe walk through the mystical forest where most of the time, all you hear is your own foot steps as you trek over the snow covered forest floor. Majestic old pine trees draped with snow watch over as your guide leads you to a comfy spot to take a small coffee break.
