The best Eskys in Australia

14 top rated Eskys for every need: Australia's top picks!

Eskys, also known as snowshoes, are a fantastic piece of winter gear that unlock a world of outdoor adventure. They allow you to traverse snowy landscapes with ease and comfort, preventing you from sinking into deep snow and providing a stable platform for hiking, snowshoeing, and exploring. Beyond recreation, snowshoes offer a great workout, a chance to connect with nature, and a unique perspective on winter environments, making them essential for anyone seeking to enjoy the beauty and serenity of snow-covered terrain. They’re also surprisingly accessible, with options catering to all skill levels and budgets.

What to Look For

Snowshoe Size & Weight Capacity

Consider your weight (including gear!) and the typical snow conditions you'll encounter. Larger snowshoes offer more floatation in deep snow, but are heavier and less efficient on packed trails. Ensure the snowshoe's weight capacity exceeds your actual weight.

Binding System

The binding is crucial for comfort and security. Look for a binding system that's compatible with your boots (often with universal mounting options) and provides a snug, adjustable fit. Boa systems, ratchet mechanisms, and traditional strap systems all offer different levels of convenience and adjustability.

Snowshoe Traction

The snowshoe's deck features various traction elements like crampons, aggressive edges, or micro-grips. For icy or steep terrain, aggressive crampons are essential. Milder terrain might suffice with simpler edge designs.

Snowshoe Material & Durability

Snowshoes are generally made from aluminum, plastic, or a combination of both. Aluminum is known for its durability and strength, while plastic can be lighter and more flexible. Consider the terrain you'll be using them on to determine the appropriate level of robustness.

Snowshoe Suspension/Flex

Some snowshoes incorporate a flexible design or suspension system which helps them conform to uneven terrain and reduce fatigue. This is particularly beneficial on longer hikes or varied snow conditions.

Packability and Portability

If you plan to hike long distances or travel frequently, consider how easily the snowshoes pack down and carry. Some models have folding or collapsible designs for greater portability.
