Great ideas for your snow adventure

Even in the cold season you can experience numerous little adventures. Are you short of ideas? - No problem, we have a few tips that are guaranteed to prevent boredom and allow you to enjoy the winter outdoors to the full.

Very important: dress appropriately for the outside temperatures and slip into your warm, waterproof shoes and you're ready to go!

Where can I do this?

All you have to do for this adventure is find a suitable place in the garden - and you're ready to go!

What do I need for this?

In addition to suitable footwear and weatherproof clothing, you'll need plenty of snow. We also recommend a snow shovel and enough buckets or other containers - and you're ready to go!

How does it work?

Firstly, fill your containers with snow and tap it down firmly. When setting up the snow bar, it is particularly important that the snow blocks are as close together as possible. The gaps between the blocks can then be gradually filled with more snow. To make the snow bar particularly stable, you can now spray it with cold water! The fog function via the garden hose is particularly useful here.

Who is the adventure suitable for?

This winter adventure is very easy and can be realised by anyone. The more helping hands you have, the easier and quicker it is to set up the snow bar. So everyone is welcome to lend a hand, big or small! And of course, the bar can then be inaugurated directly with a mulled wine, tea or children's punch.

Extra tip:

If you want to make your snow bar even more party-ready, you can of course decorate it with fairy lights or other decorations - there are no limits to your creativity!

Where can I do this?

It's simple - you can go snowshoeing wherever there is enough snow in the cold season. Of course, it doesn't always have to be a multi-hour hike in the mountains - a walk through the snow-covered countryside on your doorstep or nearby is also an ideal and easy variation for this adventure.

What do I need for this?

Whether it's an ambitious hike with specially designed snowshoes or just a walk in snowy climes - the right footwear is definitely important here. If you are still looking for suitable shoes and tips - take a look here: Tips for Snowshoeing

Depending on the level of difficulty, there are also other rules to follow, such as avalanche assessment and keeping to marked trails.

Who is the adventure suitable for?

Basically, this little adventure is suitable for anyone who enjoys being outdoors in winter temperatures - just put on your boots and off you go!

For more complex and longer tours in the mountains, there is of course a little more to consider - in addition to a certain basic level of fitness and experience, it is important to have the right equipment to hand, not to overestimate yourself and not to take any risks when in doubt. You should also always carry a mobile phone with you so that you can call for help immediately if the worst comes to the worst.

Where can I do that?

This adventure is also easy to organise as usual. Almost every hill in your neighbourhood is suitable for a toboggan ride - provided there is snow. And if there's already too much going on at the first hill or it gets too boring after a certain time - just move on to the next one!

What do I need for this?

Apart from the appropriate winter conditions, all you need is a suitable sledge or bobsleigh. Weatherproof clothing and the right footwear are also recommended - and the wild ride can begin!

If you want to fortify yourself in between, pack some tea or children's punch and a few small treats.

Who is the adventure suitable for?

For anyone who likes a bit of action and isn't afraid of possibly ending up in the snow. Sledging is often particularly popular with families with children.

How much time do I need to plan for this?

Depending on your mood - here you really are completely free and unbound! The more mountains you explore with your sledge, the longer you will of course be out and about. But this adventure is also the ideal solution if you just want to get out into the fresh air for 1-2 hours. But we're sure that once you've started, the fun won't let up any time soon.

Extra tip: If you don't have a sledge available, there are plenty of other ways to slide down the hill. An old baking tray or a bin liner, for example, are also suitable. Try it out!
