    Very well organized tour. Scenic countryside. Very good accommodations and choice of meals. Hikes were made all fun by our lovely guide Alex. All in all very satisfied with what we got!

    No best way to discover a winter wonderland. And this trek makes exactly this. Being first-timers in snowshoeing was not a problem at all. We love mountains and go often on hiking treks, but never attempted to do that in winter. This is a very different approach to explore the mountains, and very enjoyable. Be sure to have the right clothing for winter sports and leave everything else to the guide, who (in our case) was brilliant!

    Never tried this before until recently. Both my son and I had our doubts whether this will like us or not, but eventually it turned out that snowshoeing is a great fun! We had fantastic guide and snow conditions were mint. The variety of forestry and alpine hikes showed us a lot of the local mountain ranges. The itinerary was very well thought and the whole organization - impeccable!
