PRE-SALE - 10% DISCOUNT UNTIL MAY 1 WITH PROMO CODE: PROMO1CHEVRE10 Would you like to become independent and go hiking for several days? Now's the time to get the tools and knowledge to make it happen! You'll be able to live the full experience with our guide Louise Chetaille and completely unplug in the mountains.
With a length of 1,650 km, the Sentier National au Québec (SNQ) is the longest natural trail in Quebec dedicated to hiking, snowshoeing and Nordic skiing. From Ottawa to Gaspé, the Trail crosses no less than 9 of Quebec's tourist regions: Outaouais, Laurentides, Lanaudière, Mauricie, Quebec, Charlevoix, Manicouagan, Bas-Saint-Laurent and Gaspésie. For this introduction to long-distance hiking, we're proposing a section of the Laurentians, the Mont-Gorille sector. Come and develop your skills to build your autonomy in long-distance hiking! The aim of this course is to learn about long-distance hiking and camp management, not to cover masses of kilometers.
*It is possible to pay in two instalments, just write to us.
Lodging is wilderness camping - no infrastructure.
You will be paired with a partner for meal preparation.

You'll be paired with another participant for meals (division of weight and portions). For sleeping arrangements, please let Louise know if you are interested in sharing your tent with another participant. Bring more than you need, as we'll have time to go over the equipment on site!
