If you like to spend your time outside in the woods, this is the tour for you! This highly interpretive tour lasts up to 3 hours and takes you off into the backcountry of Yellowstone. This trail does not walk the upper geyser basin. The pace is slow so you will have plenty of time to ask questions, take photos, and enjoy your time outside. You will travel through different types of forests looking for signs of animals. You will snowshoe along the Firehole River and also get to see some thermal basins. The terrain is mostly flat with a few short hills. You do not need to have any experience snowshoeing. Your expert guide will help you become comfortable with your gear.
Snowshoes are not included in the price, but are available to rent in the Bear Den Ski Shop.
Children are welcome but must be physically capable of keeping up with the group.
