“Het sneeuwschoenwandelen was echt geweldig! We kozen om het bospad te doen en dit was uitdagend, maar veel leuker dan enkel over het meer. Eenmaal klaar met wandelen zochten we een plekje op het meer om een gat te maken. Dit was erg leuk. Tijdens het vissen zelf moet je staan en krijg je geen stoeltjes. Helaas niets gevangen, maar er werd ook niet uitgelegd wat de beste manier is om een vis te vangen enkel hoe ver je lijn in het water moet hangen. Achteraf bleek dat je zo stil mogelijk moet staan en zijn. Gelukkig was het vuurtje in de tipi tent heerlijk en waren de worstjes die…”

She was very well organized and answered all of our questions. There was a very friendly atmosphere and you can feel that the company makes an effort to create this kind of experience.
