Activity description

Take a snowshoeing tour in the Jacques-Cartier National Park from Quebec City!

Quatre Natures offers you a unique and typically Quebecois experience in the Jacques Cartier National Park, combining snowshoeing and the discovery of Quebec's culinary specialties.

Starting from old Quebec, you will take the road to reach the Jacques Cartier National Park. Once there, your instructor will introduce you to the equipment and help you get dressed. You will then leave for a 3-hour snowshoeing tour to discover one of the most famous national parks in Quebec. During the hike, you will enjoy the incredible forest scenery, discover incredible views of Jacques Cartier Park and, if you are lucky, come across some animals. A stop will be made in a heated tent where you can enjoy a lunch with a hot drink. Afterwards, you will have to join the shuttle that will drop you off in the old town of Quebec.

Don't hesitate any longer and discover Jacques Cartier Park on snowshoes for an incredible day from Quebec City!

Le sol étant trop glacé, nous n'avons pas pu utiliser les raquettes, nous avons apprécié que l'activité ne soit pas annulée. Nous sommes partis en balade avec des bâtons et des crampons.

Promenade très agréable qui permet de profiter de jolies vues. Le tout accompagné d'une guide très sympa et professionnelle. Elle nous apprend beaucoup de choses sur la faune et la flore, avec des explications précises et des feuilles pour illustrer. Les pauses de dégustation de produit locaux sont les bienvenues également :) . Bref, un bon moment dans la forêt enneigée.

It was better than expected. It was a wonderful escape from the hustle and bustle of Quebec City at this time of the year.
