Downloading shapefiles with specific key

Hi!

I’m looking to download a shapefile for all paths with the key “snowmobile”. Though it seems like many providers of vector data for OSM like geofabrik for example only offers the “common” layers which you see when you visit the standard OSM map. Though in my area there are several snowmobile tracks which do only have the key “snowmobile” and does not belong to any other category. So my question is where I’ll be able to download these snowmobile tracks? Any suggestions?

The usual way for this type of selection is to use overpass (or Overpass-Turbo). See the wiki for examples and usage.

You cant download directly as a shape file, but GeoJSON is available and files can be directly uploaded into QGIS and saved as a shapefile or they can be converted using ogr2ogr.
