What to expect

You'll meet your guide and board a custom 4x4 Jeep fitted with high-grade winter tyres, heating, and windows that seal against the cold. The vehicle accommodates up to 54 people, though group size may vary. From there, you'll head into snowy terrain for sledding runs, then hike in crampons around the perimeter of a frozen lake and out to a waterfall viewpoint, stopping frequently for photos of the surrounding peaks and any wildlife you spot. Between activities the group returns to the warm vehicle. Throughout the tour you'll have access to hot cocoa, coffee, tea, and snacks. The National Park Day Pass is handled as part of your booking, so entry is seamless. The tour wraps after roughly 3–4 hours depending on conditions and group pace.

Good to know

This tour works for families, groups, and solo travellers of any fitness level—hiking is gentle and distances are short, sledding requires no experience, and the vehicle does most of the work. Winter conditions mean weather can shift rapidly; the enclosed, heated Jeep mitigates exposure, but bring layers and windproof outerwear. Crampons are supplied but you'll need sturdy boots. Groups can be large (up to 54), so expect shared vehicle time rather than private attention. The tour is weather-dependent; check availability before booking. Public transport is available nearby. All entry fees, equipment, and refreshments are included; no hidden costs flagged.
