Go winter camping with Aventure Outaouais

In partnership with Aventure Hélianthe, Aventure Outaouais is offering a new two-day, one-night guided excursion into the heart of Davidson forest, designed for first-time winter campers. You’ll start with a scenic snowshoe hike to your campsite near Lac Canoe, where you’ll spend the night in a prospector tent heated by a wood-burning stove.
