Outdoor Activities- Winter
Snowshoeing
Take the time to savour the forest atmosphere in winter. On snowshoes, you'll see the snow-covered park in a fascinating new light. In La Diable Sector, you can go snowshoeing on the eastern bank of Lac Monroe on the Lac-des-Femmes, Roche and Corniche trails or take one of the longer trails. The new Des Ruisselets trail leads snowshoers to the hut called... la Hutte... where the song of the chickadees makes lunchtime a special treat. Experienced snowshoers can discover the most beautiful winter landscapes on the Centenaire trail.
In the Pimbina sector, you can snowshoe on the wooded Geai-Bleu trail, the spectacular Envol trail, and the Mont-des-Cascades trail for more experienced snowshoe enthusiasts.
