Guided Snowmobile Tour at Lake Saint-Jean near Saguenay

Located around 60 km west of Saguenay, upstream of the river of the same name, Lake Saint-Jean is the third-largest lake in Quebec. Pleasant to discover in every season, it is a natural site brimming with outdoor activities, both on land and on the water. And when it freezes over in winter, it is highly recommended to make the most of it by heading out on a snowmobile excursion from Saint-Gédéon, with the opportunity to ride directly on the lake if conditions are optimal! This unique experience is offered by the Équinox Aventure team, made up of passionate guides who will be delighted to show you Lake Saint-Jean via snowmobile trails winding between snow-covered forests and the frozen lake.
