Mt. Washington Valley Ski Touring and Snowshoe Foundation is holding its annual Trail Days on Saturday, November 8 and Sunday, November 9 starting at 8:00 AM.

Weekly Guided Snowshoe Walks
Join us any Saturday afternoon at 1:00 pm for a guided snowshoe walk along the East Branch and Saco rivers. This is a great way to try this winter activity which is gaining in popularity each season. Snowshoes are available for rent.

Winter Trails Day
This is a day for first-timers to get out and try a winter sport. If you have never tried snowshoeing before, today is your day. You are invited to join our weekly guided snowshoe tour at no charge. The tour also includes complimentary use of snowshoes during the tour. This is a great wintersport that can be enjoyed by anyone. We hope you will give it a try.

Intervale-After-Dark Series
Join us for a guided tour along the gentle terrain of the Intervale Trail. Take a Full Moon Tour and cross country ski by the light of the full moon or with an amateur astronomer learning about the stars and constellations on a Stargazing Tour. These tours depart at 7:00 p.m. and last for about 1.5 hours depending on the weather. Reservations are requested and event passes are required. The Event Pass also includes a daily membership that may be used the day of or the day after the event.

Animal Tracking
This is a two hour snowshoe tour from the Touring Center with naturalist Chris Lewey as your guide. Search for tracks of winter residents of forest and field and discover the mysteries of what animals do in the winter by interpreting tracks and signs they leave behind. Snowshoe at an easy pace on gentle terrain along the Saco and East Branch Rivers. Chosen as one of Yankee Magazine's favorite winter activities, this tour will depart from the Touring Center at 10:00 a.m. Reservations and a $20 Event Pass are required. Snowshoe rentals are available at the Touring Center if needed.

Annual Chocolate Festival
Our most popular event of the season! Cross country ski inn-to-inn along our 65 km of trails stopping along the way to indulge in your favorite chocolate fantasies. FREE with the purchase of a Chocolate Festival Pass which will be $20 if purchased in advance, or $25 when purchased the day of the event.
