What is Snowshoeing Insurance?
Snowshoeing Insurance is designed to protect you financially should you get injured or need medical assistance whilst exploring remote areas on your snowshoes.
Whichever snowshoeing destination you’re pursuing on your holiday, make sure you are protected with the best possible Sports Travel Insurance cover before you go. SportsCover Direct has been insuring snow sports lovers of all ages and abilities for the last 30 years, giving them protection and peace of mind every time they travel.
Our range of policy options include cover for personal accidents or injuries; all the medical and repatriation expenses not covered by your EHIC or GHIC card; travel-related compensation in the event of cancellation or disruption; and cover for equipment or luggage that’s lost, stolen or damaged.
Why do you need Snowshoeing Insurance?
Despite snowshoeing being generally considered as a safe sport that is enjoyed by people of all ages, there are certain risks associated with it.
Snowshoeing is generally used as an individual activity or in conjunction with other winter sports such as skiing and snowboarding as it allows you to access more remote areas.
Snowshoeing is seen to be a low risk activity but like with most winter sports the risk of an injury is still present, so making sure that you have personal insurance in place to protect yourself is highly advised.
