Snowshoeing

At the heart of an unspoiled landscape, a winter hike on snowshoes provides an invigorating shot of vitamin D !

Snowshoes allow you to glide through the snow without sinking down into it. The traditional equipment of Canadian trappers has come a long way over the years. Now lighter and simpler to maneuver, it’s so much easier to set out on an adventure.

Several cafés are en route offering the perfect excuse for a welcome warm-up or simply to swap stories of experiences along the way over a revitalising mug of hot chocolate.
