Guided Snowshoe Tours

Embark on a captivating journey through the woods with one of our expert Guides, who will share fascinating insights about the natural features and wildlife of the area. Sugarbush’s terrain is home to a diverse range of animals, including black bears, moose, deer, coyotes, bobcats, fishers, ermines, owls, turkeys, and woodpeckers. While sightings of these creatures are rare, your guide will teach you how to interpret tracks, spot scarred trees, identify nipped branches, and recognize the unique sounds of the forest. Tours will take place in the woods surrounding Gate House or in the Slide Brook Basin, depending on the conditions of the day.
