An exhilarating adventure in the heart of the Canadian forest! Riding a powerful snowmobile, you’ll discover, in the vicinities of the Saint-Maurice Wildlife Reserve and of the Mauricie National Park, the wild beauties of our wide open spaces!

After the crossing of the majestic Saint-Maurice River, your guide will lead you towards a cozy forest shelter where you will enjoy a hearty lunch in the vicinity of the mighty Mattawin River, completely isolated from the rest of the civilization. During the meal taken around a bonfire, your guide will tell you some stories related to the lumberjacks and the raftmen who used to work in this section of the Mauricie Wildlife Reserve. You will then have the opportunity to try some off trail riding in order to return to the main trail network. Back at the Adventure Center at the end of the day, you’ll take advantage of a farewell dinner. (Lunch and dinner include)
The table below features a list of short packages which you can easily add to the original package. If you want to add one of these packages, please make your choice using the appropriate field of the quotation request form. We’d like to bring your attention to the fact that adding one or several of these short packages will of course increase the length of your trip.
