Activity description

Make the most of the superb setting of the Saguenay Fjord by setting off on a 1.5-hour hike with sled dogs near Tadoussac!

With the arrival of warmer weather and the melting of the snow, Ferme 5 Etoiles invites you to spend some time with its sled dogs on a hike at the Saguenay Fjord. This time, there is no sledge: you will be attached to your walking companion using a belt/harness and an elastic tether! This is an experience to be shared with one of the dogs of the pack, in the heart of nature and in the company of a small group of no more than 6 participants.

As soon as you arrive at the centre, the guide will take you to meet the sled dogs with whom you will share this hike at the Saguenay Fjord. He will explain how the pack works, and then you will set off for a 1.5-hour walk along forest paths on the edge of the fjord which offers some superb scenery. You will have an unforgettable time discovering Quebec's exceptional environment while forging a unique bond with your canine trekking companion!

Accessible to children aged 6 and over and accompanied by an adult, this hike with sled dogs near Tadoussac is the perfect way to enjoy an original outing with adorable nordic dogs!
