Sample of some of the available activities

- People of all levels can enjoy snowshoeing in winter on Kannabe volcano. The guide will tell many ways on how to enjoy the freshly fallen snow such as lying down in it, gazing at the completely white scenery and looking for animal tracks. At the summit while looking at the crater, enjoy a hot drink while sitting at a dining table made of snow.
