It's important to know

The form of clothing is warm, sporty and loose, suitable for weather conditions. Be sure to have good, comfortable trekking shoes.

You need to take with you:

A thermos of tea and a small backpack for a snack.
Be sure to take a headlamp with spare batteries.
Hiking shoe covers for feet (protection from snow getting into shoes).
Trekking poles (if available). For people who have problems with joints, it is a must. The sticks will reduce the load on the knees when climbing the Pole.
Spare replacement shoes and clothes for the bus. After visiting natural sites (most likely), some of the clothes and shoes will be damp or wet.
Personal belongings for hotel accommodation.

A memo on clothes for snowmobiling (in a sleigh):

In cold weather, multi-layered clothing will help to keep body heat longer, protect against winds and prevent frostbite. use a warm jacket and pants (or a ski suit).
Be sure to wear a scarf and a headdress (if possible, a balaclava).
We recommend wearing protective glasses - they will protect your eyes from snow, fine ice, and also save you from the wind and the blinding sun.
Gloves should preferably be worn with a fleece or wool lining, they should keep your hands warm, reliably protect from moisture and wind.
To keep your feet warm, we recommend wearing thermal socks (it is better to take an extra pair with you on a trip).
Shoes should be warm and comfortable for conditions when you are not on the move.
