Modern-day riders have no need of a horse, they enjoy Quebec’s great outdoors aboard a snowmobile. Thousands of kilometres of marked and well-maintained snowmobiling trails run through Quebec. Wide open spaces and abundant snow are the two key elements that make Quebec the world’s most sought after destination for this outdoor winter activity! If you’ve never tried snowmobiling, have no fear, you won't have to invest a fortune for a single outing: many hotels offer packages that include accommodations and snowmobile, equipment and clothing rentals. Different tourism businesses also offer guided expeditions. The Fédération des clubs de motoneigistes du Québec can provide you with a great deal of practical information. Several regions also print detailed maps of trails just for snowmobiles, which are quite useful whether you are preparing for a short outing of a few hours or an expedition that will last several days.
