Winter Wildlife Snowshoe Tour at Yellowstone

Embrace the silence of a Yellowstone winter away from the crowds with your experienced backcountry guide.

Whether new or adept on snowshoes, your excursion will be tailored to your interests and ability level. Adventures can range from a leisurely stroll to a strenuous all-day exploration, and your guide will work with you to select the perfect option for you.

On the way to your trailhead in the wildlife-rich northern range of Yellowstone, search for animals such as wolves or enjoy opportunistic sightings of bison, elk, and other wildlife. Whether you choose a short jaunt or a longer hike, your experience will be enriched by your guide's in-depth knowledge of the landscape and wildlife around you, so be sure to bring your questions and curiosity! Snowshoes can be provided upon request (no additional charge).

We aim for a 6- to 8-hour tour day, but the length of the day can be somewhat flexible depending on your interests.
