PRE-SALE 10% OFF UNTIL DECEMBER 1 // Our favorite activity for the past two years: ice canoeing! On this day, you'll have the chance to try your hand at ice canoeing, thanks to the passionate team at Canot à glace Expérience. On the menu: breathtaking views of the river, the city and historic sites such as Anse-Brown, plus the chance to learn the basic techniques of ice canoeing, a little-known sport that's astonishing, but so extraordinary! All equipment is provided, and there's plenty of fun and gourmet surprises during a well-deserved break on drifting ice. Isn't that bucolic? Oh yes, the day ends with a Nordic swim, a trip to the sauna with panoramic views and a hot soup. What could be better?
Canot à glace Expérience guides will introduce you to the techniques of ice canoeing: you can try your hand at scootering and paddling. It's an opportunity to try out an unusual activity and push yourself to the limit. If you're worried about getting cold from the ice and water, we guarantee you'll be warm and moving for the effort.
