Snowshoeing


Snowshoeing is a great way to exercise and get outdoors in the winter. Snowshoes disperse your weight allowing you to travel through deep snow with less effort. They give you the opportunity to get off the beaten path and experience our beautiful Minnesota winters.  Snowshoe rentals are available on Saturdays and Sundays during the hours of Noon to 4 p.m. (January thru mid-March) at Robert Ney Regional Park and Nature Center.  Check out the following parks that have snowshoeing:
