The Esquimo: the ultimate Northern experience, the adventure of a lifetime, nature’s authentic road to adventure. After this fabulous experience you might even end up considering living in the forest for the rest of your life!

Get ready for some action! For those wishing to experience the raw energy of nature, nothing compares to a dog sledding adventure in the wild territories of the Saint-Maurice Wildlife Reserve. You will be carried by our powerful hounds while catching a glimpse of the ever changing landscapes as you glide across the winter wonderland. Your musher (guide) will teach you the art of harnessing the huskies and you will have the opportunity to ride your own sled. At midday, you will also enjoy a tasteful meal cooked over a campfire. Back at the Adventure Center at the end of the day, you’ll take advantage of a farewell dinner. (Lunch and dinner included)
