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

Quatre Natures offers you a unique and typically Québécois experience in Jacques Cartier National Park, combining snowshoe trekking with the discovery of Quebec's culinary specialities.

Departing from Old Quebec, you'll take the road to Jacques Cartier National Park. Once there, your instructor will show you the equipment and help you get fitted. You will then set off on a 3-hour snowshoe trek in Quebec to discover one of the region's most famous national parks.

During your snowshoe hike in Jacques Cartier National Park, you'll be able to enjoy the incredible forest scenery, discover incredible views of Jacques Cartier Park and, if you're lucky, come across a few animals. At the end of your snowshoe hike in Quebec, a stop will be made in a heated tent so that you can enjoy lunch with a hot drink. Then you'll have to catch the shuttle bus that will drop you off in Quebec City's old town.

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

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

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.
