Then on the fire, I will prepare a delicious traditional Quebec meal accompanied by hot drinks and will tell you the Indian legends of the old days of the French explorers.

Hiking this trail is so fun and Francois is very knowledgeable of the area and its history. Luna and Theo were the perfect companions on our snowshoeing adventure! My wife and I loved every second.

Francois runs a great snowshoeing experience. The route is gorgeous and Francois makes sure it is safe. His historical anecdotes are interesting and give a sense of what the early explorers and settlers encountered. Lunch around the campfire was very tasty and fun. Highly recommended.

An amazing experience! Traveled with a group of 7 adults. The tour guide was very patient, helpful, accommodating and informative. His dog Luna is also a great tour leader, encouraging us to move along and the goats. Many opportunities to interact with the goats and take pictures. The scenery is absolutely gorgeous. The lunch was amazing and the homemade maple whiskey was delish!!!
