Still uncertain which snowshoe is best for you? Many gear stores and winter resorts have snowshoes available for rental. Try out different styles and sizes until you find the snowshoes that work best for you.
First, decide on the type of snowshoes by determining where and in what conditions they will be used.
Types and Styles of Snowshoeing
Recreational Snowshoes: Just getting started in snowshoeing? Recreational snowshoes may be a great place to start. Recreational snowshoes are designed for easy to moderate terrain and are great for exploring packed trails [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], city parks, and golf courses. These snowshoes have easily adjustable bindings and traction systems called crampons intended for gentle terrain. These shoes tend to be the least expensive option.Hiking and Adventure Snowshoes: Hiking snowshoes are a step up from the recreational snowshoes and are for those interested in taking their snowshoes off trail. With a more aggressive traction system and a more secure binding, hiking snowshoes perform well on and off the trail. These snowshoes are great for steeper terrain but will not handle well on ice or the very steepest of slopes.Backcountry Snowshoes: Backcountry snowshoes are designed for the most difficult terrain and are ideal for those wishing to forge their own trails, tackle summits, or backcountry snowboard. Backcountry snowshoes are lightweight, have very secure double bindings, and aggressive traction systems, which makes them easy to navigate through icy, steep, and uneven terrain. These models tend to be the most expensive due to their lightweight, strong materials and advanced technical features.Other Snowshoe Types: It is important to note that there are specific snowshoes types designed for women and youth and for those that would like to run or race. Women specific snowshoes are lighter [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], slimmer, and easier to navigate than unisex snowshoes and youth snowshoes are available in a variety of small sizes. Running and racing snowshoes tend to be lighter and smaller, allowing you to run in your natural stride.What Size Snowshoes are Best?
Snowshoeing is an easy and cheap way to explore the winter landscape. Unlike other winter sports [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], snowshoeing is easy to learn and relatively inexpensive to get started. All that is needed to get started in snowshoeing is a pair of snowshoes and suitable footwear. There are many different types of snowshoes so it might take some thought to decide which one is right. Read the following tips for helping choosing a pair of snowshoes.
Weight: Weight including how much gear will typically be carryied determines the right size of shoe. The heavier the person (and gear), the larger the snowshoes needed. Every snowshoe manufacturer lists the weight capacity specific to each size of snowshoe.Snow Conditions: Snowshoe weight capacity is usually estimated based on dry snow conditions. Hiking through dry, powdery conditions require greater flotation and larger snowshoes than in wetter, heavier snow. It is also important to consider the types of terrain you will be hiking in. If traveling through denser, forested trails smaller snowshoes may be preferred for easy maneuverability. Smaller snowshoes are in general more easy to navigate, so it is a good idea to choose the smallest snowshoes that allows adequate flotation for you weight and gear load.
Snowshoes are available in a range of lengths and sizes. Fitting snowshoes depends on two factors: your weight and the snow conditions you will most likely be traveling in.
