The snowshoes are special tools that you attach to the base of your boots to allow you to walk nimbly on the snow. They are suitable for adults and children and can be a good alternative to skiing, especially for those seeking a more intimate and direct contact with nature.
Those looking for snowshoeing ideas in Cuneo will be spoiled for choice. The Alps and valleys of Cuneo are full of trails of all levels, from easy trails for those who want to enjoy a leisurely walk, to climbs with nearly 1,000 m of elevation gain, for those who are not afraid to toil and conquer the highest peaks.

Snowshoe in Cuneo: discovering fairy-tale landscapes
The valleys of Monviso are the perfect setting for those who want to snowshoe in Cuneo. At the foot of the highest mountain in the Cottian Alps, you can follow scenic routes without missing the pleasure of a stop at a mountain lodge for a hot drink and a slice of homemade cake or to taste the typical dishes of Occitan cuisine.
Snowshoeing trails in and around Cuneo provide an opportunity to explore the most pristine areas of Piedmont, with striking landscapes characterized by Alpine peaks and small mountain villages that seem to belong in storybooks. Mountain Guides in the area also organize night snowshoeing or sunset hikes, for those who want to catch the special shades of sunset and have an even more exciting experience.
The best routes and trails to snowshoe in Cuneo
Among the best snowshoeing routes in Cuneo are those on Mount Mondolè. Starting in Prato Nevoso, you take the cable car to an elevation of 2,000 m, and from there you walk with snowshoes on a scenic trail that passes an alpine hut and a frozen pond.
Another recommended location for snowshoeing in the province of Cuneo is the Maira Valley. This valley is among the most pristine in Italy, remaining virtually untouched as it is little known to mass tourism. It is ideal for those who want to regenerate themselves while contemplating alpine landscapes in the total silence of nature.
Other areas in the Cuneo area where snowshoeing is possible are the Varaita Valley, the Stura Valley and the Po’ Valley, at the foot of Monviso, where Italy’s longest river has its source!
Snowshoeing with a mountain guide: info on prices and costs
The price of a snowshoe hike with a Mountain Guide depends on the location, duration, and type of experience. It starts at 20€ per person for an easy hike in Prato Nevoso and goes up to 40€ per person for a high altitude hike, in which the cable car ticket is included, as well as snowshoe rental.
Snowshoeing can also be done privately, with the accompaniment of an assigned Mountain Guide. In this case, prices are higher and can be as high as 100€ per person for a full-day outing.

20 Jan 2024 | High-altitude snowshoeing in Prato Nevoso with lunch
Beautiful experience
It was my girlfriend and I's first time snowshoeing and it was a great way to start. Once the booking was made and the payment settled, an email arrived with the guide's details, his phone contact and the address of the meeting place. Giorgia was very helpful in giving us directions on what to wear and bring. The snowshoe hike (snowshoes and poles included) started at 10:00 a.m. and after an hour or so of very light 'ascent' we arrived at the cable car (included) that leads to the summit of Prato Nevoso. Then once there at the summit, we did a little more snowshoeing and then went to eat at the 'La Rossa' refuge and the polenta was delicious. Then we set off again to descend first by cable car and then by snowshoeing. At 3pm, we were back at the starting point. The day was pleasant and the weather was good. I would do it again.

4-hour snowshoe hike to Prato Nevoso with lunch
Everything perfect, incredible sunny day. The only drawback is that on the platform it says (snowshoeing 4 hours) meeting at the Rifugio del Verde while then on the email was written the Conca which on the internet (google) you can't find any information about what it is, and it's not good for those who come for the first time like me. I had to go to a lot of trouble and energy to get to the meeting place which was then super easy knowing it.. The day was exceptional in itself, both for the driving and the sun and landscape.

Very positive experience! The staff at Freedome was very helpful for post-booking needs, and in the days leading up to the excursion the guide was very kind and helpful with information about the weather conditions, with maximum flexibility in order to carry out the snowshoe hike in the best possible conditions. It was our first time using snowshoes and we had a great time hiking through nature and beautiful scenery. The hike lasted about two hours, including the preparation.

End-of-winter snowshoeing
In reality, we arrived in late spring...snow still present but no doubt not an even and compact mantle. The guide, Costanza, was very good at following the entire group and not letting the scarce snow get in the way - on the contrary, she made the most of the place. Well done. Experience recommended and to be repeated!
