The track you take is located between river and mountains with superb views of the peaks and rocky capes that advance in the Saguenay. After taking a break for a refreshing lunch in a snowmobile relay station, you will get back in the saddle to arrive at the end of the afternoon at your hotel, which welcomes you for the night. Dinner will take place in the dining room and a warm evening will take you quietly until a well-deserved night.

Day 3 : La Baie des Ha! Ha!-La Malbaie 180km

After a good breakfast, off you go for an other day of snowmobiling. Along the way, you will stop in  the little village of L’Anse Saint Jean for the lunch.

Details

Two emblematic regions of Quebec:
The Laurentians, which lie on the north shore of the St. Lawrence River and are home to an important mountain range covered with boreal forest, and the Charlevoix known for its alternating fluvial and mountainous landscapes, are two of the most beautiful regions of Quebec,
that you will cross during your journey.
Carefully selected accommodation:
After a day of riding your snowmobile in idyllic landscapes, a well-deserved rest awaits you in traditional hotels, chalets and inns chosen for their simple comfort as much as for their location or their authentic character.
A snowmobile raid supervised by professionals:
Winter in Quebec cannot be improvised. For many years, Nord Expé has been training and employing certified professionals in snowmobiling. We guarantee recent equipment in perfect condition and expert assistance on site.
Original complementary activities:
Beyond the pleasure of crossing the great expanses on the handlebars of your snowmobile, we offer activities to discover the culture of our region: visit a Native American site, explore Quebec City and visit the Hôtel de Glace. .

Your snowmobile in a few words….

On this raid, you will pilot an Expedition LE 900 cc Ace GEN4 snowmobile equiped with a powerful and flexible 4-stroke engine, without oil odors. Stability and comfort are increased compared to the basic economic model called “Sport” and the 600 cc snowmobile most often offered. The 2-speed gearbox will help you with difficult passages. An ultra high windshield will provide better protection from the elements.
