Snowshoeing at Smugglers' Notch

Dave and I spent New Year's Day snowshoeing at Smugglers' Notch in Jeffersonville, Vermont. The resort's Nordic Ski & Snowshoe Adventure Center includes 34 kilometers of cross-country ski trails plus 24 kilometers of dedicated snowshoe terrain.

Getting outdoors on my snowshoes was a good way to start the year since I'm determined to get more exercise this winter. The trails at Smugglers' Notch offer terrain for all levels, which makes snowshoeing and cross-country skiing here perfect for families, couples and serious outdoor enthusiasts.

  2. My RedFeathers are ready to go. There is a lot of farmland and snowmobile trails to follow here. I'm hoping to get out there on Sunday.

    Hi Elivira -- Snowshoeing is tiring, but it's a great workout. You're right, it's very peaceful and beautiful walking through the winter forests. You should try it!
