Snowshoes are ideal sports equipment for moving gently in the snow-covered winter landscape. With the deep-snow walking aids, you can explore terrain where there are no groomed winter paths. Snowshoes were used as early as the Stone Age, they used to be made of bent branches and braided leather. There are now models made of aluminium, plastic and carbon. Metal spikes and climbing aids make it possible to move even in steep terrain in icy conditions. Beginners can choose between different variants, ranging from plastic entry-level models to expedition models suitable for high mountains.
