Snowshoe Hiking - Winter Tour

Stockholm Gay Tours offers the opportunity to discover the hidden part of Stockholm where finding wildlife, walking over frozen lakes or stepping through frozen pine forests to track deer or moose in the snow are those great activities to enjoy during this tour.

Join this small group (max 8 travelers per guide) to hike in the most beautiful nature scenery Stockholm could offer in Winter. After a short introduction to snowshoeing and the equipment we will jump into the woods and discover everything around. We climb up to viewpoints and hike over frozen lakes. You’ll see endless forests and maybe in the far distance Stockholm’s skyline!

Learn about tracking deer, moose and hare. There will be plenty of time and spots for hot coffee and some cake as well. Finishing up the tour we arrive to the starting point, and make way back to the meeting point.
