RAID Upper Laurentians

The team from Mekoos outfitter will be at the airport to welcome you and take you to your hotel, the Double Tree By Hilton in Montreal. In the heart of downtown, explore a thousand and one bars, restaurants, and shops on Sainte-Catherine Street or stroll through the Old Port. After this trip, relax in a city where luxury meets celebration. Enjoy your dinner and have fun!

Around 8 AM, departure for the north; it takes you 3 hours and 30 minutes to reach your starting lodge. You settle into your cabins or rooms. You then choose your "Extreme Cold" equipment. Lunch with your snowmobile guide. This afternoon, 60 kilometers are planned on the odometer to familiarize you with your machines. Four-course dinner and overnight stay at Mekoos.

It's the big departure for your raid. Your guide will take you on trail 53 North passing by Pine Lake. You will have lunch at the 100 Lakes outfitter before taking trail 13 South to your stop for the night, the Pourvoirie Fer à Cheval.

A day of discovering sensations on a snowmobile. Indeed, after a lumberjack lunch, you leave the Fer à Cheval outfitter to head to Club Notawissi. There, you will have lunch before setting off to explore the Gatineau River and the Baskatong Reservoir. Your day can be summed up in two words: "immensely large!" Along the way, admire the 9-meter Serpent Falls and the smaller yet equally magical César Falls. Finally, an unforgettable dinner and evening await you at Club Notawissi.

This morning, you leave Notawissi to head to Rabaska, with a gourmet stop at the sugar shack: pork rinds, baked beans, eggs, bacon, all drizzled with maple syrup. Then, on a snowmobile, you will climb the Devil's Mountain for a breathtaking view. A stop at the Windigo Falls is a must before arriving at the Rabaska Lodge, where Dominique and Martin will warmly welcome you for an unforgettable dinner and night.

You will leave Dominique and Martin to join the Dumoulin family. Sébastien is waiting for you at the ice bar tonight with a surprise! The day continues to the St-Philippe Falls for breakfast, then heading to the Kiamika Reservoir before returning to the Mekoos outfitter. In the evening, the Mekoos team will welcome you again at the ice bar. The day will end with a hearty dinner and a cozy night at Mekoos.

Myriam's dogs are waiting for you, eager to show you their territory. Take the reins of your sled and experience a unique adventure where man and dog are one. Enjoy a trapper's dinner in a remote lodge. Three words for this day: "return to the roots." In the evening, return to the outfitter for an aperitif, followed by dinner and a peaceful night.

Take a last moment to admire the vast Quebec landscapes that, hopefully, have left you with beautiful memories. Before boarding the coach that will take you back to Montreal, share a warm farewell with the whole team. A smile, a hug, and we say see you soon, before reuniting for more adventures.
