As an off-season visitor, you’ll amble the uncrowded boardwalks among steaming and bubbling hot pools, reveling in the park’s quiet splendor. If you’d like, your guide will teach you the fundamentals of snowshoeing or cross-country skiing, so together you can explore the trails to other Upper Basin geysers, Or you can sit by the fireplace and chat, play games, or read. There’s something for everyone on this revealing and re-energizing trip.
