Auberge de montagne des Chic-Chocs

On or off the trails, make your mark in the fresh and abundant snow. All of them lead to memorable landscapes: panoramic mountain peaks, sunken valleys, fir trees heavy with snow, and much more. Keep your eyes peeled for signs of animals, listen to the silence and savour the present moment. Snowshoes and poles provided.

This snowboard, inspired by alpine touring, splits in two. For climbing, the heels are mobile. For the descent, you join the two sections of the board together and adjust the bindings to create a real snowboard. The powdery snowfields are yours! All equipment provided. No mechanical ski lift.

Both indoors and outdoors, everything at the Lodge invites relaxation. From the spa to the sauna, from panoramic balconies to comfortable sofas, wherever you go, the same peacefulness reigns. Give in to the gentle music of a stream, admire the changing light on the mountains, and savour gourmet meals. Total escape from the urban uproar and the daily grind...

Be on the lookout: Québec's three great members of the deer family share the Lodge's territory with you. With an average of 4.8 animals/km2, moose greatly outnumber people here! The area's caribou and white-tailed deer also increase your chances of encounters. Look to the sky as well. It is full of birds of prey (eagles, buzzards, falcons).

Enjoy a short hike or a backpacking trek either alone or with a guide. Anything is possible here. From dense forest to tundra, the trails cut through a variety of mountainous landscapes. You can also explore barren peaks over 1,000 m high, and get a sense of the territory's immensity.

Enjoy a change of scenery kilometre after kilometre. From valleys to summits, the vegetation varies with the landscape. A fir-yellow birch stand here, alpine tundra up there...and everywhere, rare and protected species. Beautiful discoveries in store!
