Have you noticed that locals love being outdoors even in the winter?!
You’ve been wanting to try snowshoeing but don’t own a pair?
VEQ in partnership with Accès-Loisirs will take you to the Jacques-Cartier Nat’l Park to enjoy a day of winter fun!
We only have 15 snowshoes for adults and a 5for children’s sizes. It is thus important that you reserve your spot!
***This visit is not guided.***
Participants are free to choose the trail of their preference.
We are providing transportation to the Jacques-Cartier National Park, so if you recently moved to the Greater Québec City region and would like to explore this place and try a new winter sport while making new friends, you only need to sign up!
We will leave from our offices (1270 chemin Sainte-Foy) at 9:00. The bus will take us to the Discovery & Services Centre, situated on km 10 from the park’s entrance. Once there, you can choose the activities you would like to do, like exploring one of the many trails listed below. Please take into consideration the trail’s length and estimated duration. We will leave the park at 3:00 PM. Hiking sticks are optional, and not provided by VEQ.
