The large surfaces under your shoes mean that you make giant footprints as if you were the abominable snowman, but they enable you to get through the snow easily. 

A half-hour walk in these special shoes takes you out onto the frozen fishing water. Here you will get to try a traditional Norwegian winter activity. Holes are drilled in the ice, the line is dropped in, and then it's just a matter of waiting. It is quiet and peaceful here, yet excitement hangs in the air. Will you hook something? 

A hot drink seldom tastes as good as it does when you are waiting by a fishing hole on the ice.
