Flagship experience Escape into nature

Less well known than its northern cousin, but just as epic. Four peaks, crystal-clear rivers, ancient forests: here, nature takes center stage, and we love coming here when everything is still as white as the day before. Whether you’re snowshoeing or cross-country skiing, you’ll feel very small in front of the ghosts of snow, and that’s a great feeling.

A jewel to discover… or rediscover! Here, the 35-meters falls steal the show. It’s the perfect spot for a winter walk. We love walking here when the steam frosts the trees. And what about the suspended footbridge offering a spectacular view of the Chaudière river?

Here, the outdoors is experienced gently, to the rhythm of footsteps in the snow. With 140 km of trails and frozen rivers, you can feel free and far away from it all. And when evening comes, you can share the warmth of a micro-chalet… often even with your dog, who’s just as happy to be outside as we are.

Here, every step we take takes us a little higher. We spend the day exploring the 20 km of trails, climbing Mount Oak, Mount Kerr and Mount Caribou… and then we simply stay the night. We promise you: the views are even more beautiful at sunrise.

This is winter as we like it: generous and full of adventure. Try your hand at ice fishing, go snowmobiling or dog-sledding, and ride through snow-covered forests on horseback. At the end of the day, it’s back to the warmth of a nearby chalet, the crackling fire and a smile still frozen in pleasure.

Here, we love winter when it’s a bit hair-raising. Between the trails, backcountry skiing and tobogganing, we get our fill of adrenalin and fresh air. But our real favourite at Mont Radar is Austrian sledging. You really have to experience it at least once: exhilarating descents, lots of laughter and an incredible view.

Here, we love the atmosphere as much as the skiing. Down the 42 trails, having fun in the snow parks, then stopping for a good meal at the Mexican restaurant-pub: generous portions, warm atmosphere and tacos as good as the day. The view from the summit is everywhere, and it’s truly breathtaking.

Here, winter is a family affair, without the fuss. Whether you’re skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing or cross-country skiing, the atmosphere is simple, genuine and welcoming. Mont Orignal is our favourite mountain, the one where we feel good. No wonder it’s a favourite with the families in our team!

Winter here is almost unreal: the only inhabited island in the archipelago (with just 130 inhabitants in winter), it can only be reached by plane when the river freezes over. Everyone who sets foot on the island comes away moved… there‘ s something unique about facing the St. Lawrence River, surrounded by silence and beauty.
