The experience

What's the difference between a quiet winter ride and an adrenaline rush? On a snowmobile excursion in the Laurentians, you get to find out. You'll meet your certified guide, get fitted with a helmet and complete cold-weather garment, then head out on a two-seater snowmobile to explore the region's trails. The guide leads the way through valleys, mountains and summits, setting a pace that suits the group, whether that means taking in the landscape or pushing the machines harder. Gasoline is included, so you ride without worrying about refueling.

The trails themselves shift with the season and conditions, but they're chosen to show off the Laurentians' winter character. You'll navigate different terrain depending on which route the guide takes, and the two-seater setup means you can bring a passenger along if you want company on the ride. Helmets and protective cold-weather gear are provided, so you're covered against the elements from the start.

You pick the duration that fits your day: a 2-hour trip for a morning or afternoon outing, or 4 hours if you want a deeper run into the backcountry. Either way, the guide handles the navigation and timing, so you focus on the ride itself. Riders must be at least 21 years old. Passengers can be 5 or older. A security deposit of $3,000 per snowmobile is required, and an optional hood is available to purchase on site for $15 if you want extra face protection.
