Among the various activities that can be done during winter, we also find snowshoeing: wonderful walks and treks, immersed in nature and the mountains, to explore the beauty and diversity of the alpine landscape of the Stelvio National Park.

This experience is really suitable for everyone, young and old: you can choose more challenging and tiring routes, or more relaxed and comfortable ones. There are also numerous initiatives organized by the municipality of Santa Caterina Valfurva and the local pro loco.
