Snowshoeing is gaining in popularity as a great way to get outside and exercise in the winter. Historically, as today, different lengths of snowshoes served different purposes. Here in the park you may encounter very deep snow, where longer, traditional snowshoes are quite effective. You may also find yourself traveling along an existing trail, across rougher terrain, or through brushy areas. In these areas, a shorter shoe with an up-turned toe is better for traveling.

Please be prepared for all conditions and call the park with any questions you may have about trail conditions and winter recreation in Denali (907-683-2294 daily, 9 am - 4 pm).
