King Pine Ski Resort - Snowshoeing
So much fun... and healthy too!
Snowshoeing is so much fun, the kids won't even know it's good for them! The lift and slide motion of your legs requires endurance and can burn up to 500 calories an hour. But the aerobic advantages are quickly forgotten as you explore the quiet forests around Purity Spring resort. Enjoy an easy winter hike through our extensive trail network or explore the on-site NH Audubon Wildlife Sanctuary.
