Nature cabin

The ideal winter getaway to recharge your batteries

In collaboration with Au Québ

To love winter in Québec, you have to experience it to the fullest. As nature freezes over, fixed in time, and covers itself in a blanket of white, you’ll have the perfect opportunity to slow down, deeply inhale the fresh, pure air, and fill up on serenity. And to immerse yourself in the magic of winter, far from the noise and bustle of everyday life, there's nothing better than a cabin getaway in the heart of nature. Our preferred location for this memorable winter experience? Sépaq's fabulous territories, to be sure!

Want to rediscover winter from a different angle? Here's why a cabin stay is exactly what you need to enjoy the cold season over and over again.

A well-deserved break before the Christmas holiday frenzy

The weeks leading up to the Christmas holiday period are often a whirlwind. Between last-minute shopping, meal planning, and gift lists, it's easy to lose sight of what's most important: taking time for yourself.

How about taking a break this year before the festive storm hits? Block off a few days in your schedule and head for a cabin nestled in the heart of the forest to recharge your batteries. That way, you'll be able to tackle the New Year's Eve celebrations and upcoming reunions with a whole new burst of energy!

In winter, Sépaq's cabins offer you the luxury of incomparable peace and quiet, where the only stirring is the gentle sigh of Mother Nature as she sleeps.

Nature: a remedy for the soul

Spending time in nature is more than just a change of scenery. It's a remedy for the soul, a real return to basics. In a world where everything moves too fast, where screens constantly bombard us and our agendas are always too full, the great outdoors is a balm for body and mind.

The studies speak for themselves: the benefits of contact with nature are numerous. Reduced stress, a stronger immune system, improved mood, better sleep... The list is long and convincing. And when this all-natural remedy is at hand, why deprive yourself?

Whether you're a winter hiking enthusiast, a cross-country skier, or simply a fan of peaceful forest walks, Sépaq opens the doors to the ultimate winter haven. As you venture along the magical trails, you'll feel the calm settle in, relieving the stresses and strains of everyday life.

The fireplace: comforting warmth

Imagine yourself wrapped in a blanket, a steaming mug of hot chocolate in your hands, while the flames dance in the fireplace. All around you, the soothing silence of gently falling snow. In our opinion, this is pure bliss!

Just as magical as the white scenery you gaze at through the window, the enveloping ambience of the fireplace invites not only relaxation, but also the comfort of moments spent together. It's where - with family, friends, or lovers - we tell stories, laugh, and connect. It's by the fireplace of a cabin that the warmest memories come to life.

And to our great delight, most Sépaq cabins are equipped with a fireplace or wood-burning stove!

The ultimate tranquility

Winter living in a cabin is a peaceful way to reconnect with the present moment. It's also a privileged time to contemplate nature in all its winter splendor and discover breathtaking landscapes.

The best-kept secret for enjoying the peace and quiet of winter? A cabin stay during the week. By avoiding busy periods such as weekends and the festive season, you can enjoy an even more intimate and peaceful escape into nature. Imagine yourself alone in the world, in a pristine landscape, taking your first steps in fresh snow that glistens under the sun. In our opinion, nothing beats the intense sense of well-being of feeling perfectly isolated, in symbiosis with the forest that surrounds you!

Whether you're looking for a romantic getaway, a moment of personal rejuvenation or a family vacation, Sépaq's establishments offer a unique setting for experiencing the magic of winter to the fullest.

So this year, before you dive into the end-of-year holiday frenzy, think of yourself first. Plan a cabin stay and treat yourself to the greatest gift of all: a break in the heart of nature!
