Have you noticed that locals love being outdoors—even in winter?!
Have you been wanting to try snowshoeing but don’t own a pair?
VEQ, in partnership with Accès-Loisirs, is once again offering you the opportunity to try a popular winter activity: snowshoeing!
We have a limited number of snowshoes available (15 adult pairs and 10 children’s pairs), so reserving your spot is essential.
***This visit is not guided.***
Since we only have a limited number of snowshoes, REGISTRATION IS A MUST!
We will follow the walking trails on the Plains of Abraham (shown in the picture below, with the fucsia arrow). Please observe the signage for a better experience for everyone!
Please remember to follow safety guidelines when going for a hike, like wearing appropriate clothing and shoes, or notifying someone which trail you will explore. You can take a look at this suggested how-to dress checklist. It is also recommended that you download the trail map, you can do so here.

If you are coming by car, there is parking available on George VI Ave. There are parking booths nearby or you can pay with the app (Flowbird Parking). There is also parking at the Fine Arts Museum’s parking (on the same avenue, past the roundabout).
