When it’s snow heavily, it’s time for mountain enthusiasts to get their snowshoes out! Snowshoes allow you to go hiking even in the middle of the winter. The special structure of the frame of the snowshoes increases the area of contact and deliver greater flotation in fresh snow. The metal pieces under the sole provide better grip on steep slopes. Snowshoes which differ mainly in terms of their shape/size and grip system. The larger the snowshoe, the greater the area over which weight can be distributed, which means a larger snowshoe has greater capacity. In addition to the front crampon, the sole can have crampons with 6 or more spikes points or with traction bars. Reserve your snowshoes for rental from €5 a day on this website, then collect them from one of our Decathlon stores or rental partners. Don’t forget to rent hiking poles for more stability!
