Snowshoes are tools used to make it easier to walk on snow. It has become popular in Japan in recent years as an outdoor activity for winter. It is not only a walking activity, but also a full-body workout with the use of a stock, which may relieve lack of exercise and help with weight loss.
While “kanjiki” have long served a similar purpose in Japan, snowshoes are a Western version of them. Since snowshoes grip the snow surface with a larger surface area than shoes, they provide buoyancy and prevent the feet from sinking into the fresh snow, making it much easier to walk. This means that you can enjoy the winter forest without getting your feet caught in the fluffy new snow. Snowshoeing does not require advanced skills, so even beginners can enjoy snowshoeing.
