The Path of the Stone of the Altar, during winter, transforms into one of the most fascinating routes of Sila to experience with snowshoes. The presence of snow makes the environment silent, soft, almost muffled, providing an immersive and contemplative experience. The excursion is ideal for those who want to experience the mountain in winter in a simple yet exciting way, crossing snowy woods and white clearings until reaching the evocative Stone of the Altar, a place rich in history and mystery.

The path on the snow offers a fairytale atmosphere, where the silent forest and trees covered in white create a muffled and bright environment. Walking with snowshoes allows one to experience the winter Sila at a slow and relaxing pace, enjoying the light that reflects on the snow and the play of shadows among the beech trees. The white clearings suddenly open up and provide glimpses of great beauty, while the crystalline air amplifies the sense of freedom and naturalness of the path.

One starts from a flat stretch that allows getting accustomed to the snowshoes before entering the heart of the snowy forest. The trail continues among beeches and larches, where the snow muffles every sound and accompanies the walk in an atmosphere of total tranquility. As one progresses, the landscape alternates shaded areas with white clearings that offer wider views until, among the trees, the rocky forms of the Stone of the Altar begin to appear. The final stretch leads to the last clearing, where the large monolith emerges imposing from the snow blanket, marking the most evocative point of the entire route.

What makes this experience truly unique is the combination of the simplicity of the path and the extraordinary atmosphere created by the snow. The Sila in winter offers deep tranquility and a landscape that seems suspended in time, and the Stone of the Altar, covered in white, appears even more charged with mystery and charm. The snowshoeing allows anyone, even beginners, to experience an authentic connection with nature, immersed in an environment that combines beauty, silence, and a strong historical identity. The result is an intense yet accessible winter experience, capable of leaving sensations of calmness, wonder, and fullness.
