It's snowed all night and the sun is shining... time to go snowmobiling!

Marie-Andrée Parent, fascinated by history, she tells our own story with her inspiring pen.

With 1,800 km of snowmobile trails and four major circuits covering the region, the Bas-Saint-Laurent is definitely a paradise for snowmobile enthusiasts!

Signposted, meticulously groomed and highly safe, the passionate snowmobilers of a dozen snowmobile clubs invite you to come and discover their snow kingdom.

The amount of snow the Bas-Saint-Laurent region receives year after year, and the quality of the trails that cover hundreds of kilometers in the heart of forests dotted with breathtaking viewpoints, attract snowmobilers from all over North America.

Another favorite is the proximity of all services – restaurants, lodging, gas stations – near or even on the trails, so you can enjoy both the remoteness and the benefits of civilization. It’s an incredible feeling to be so far away in the forest and suddenly find an enchanting village, a relay nestled under the snow, where you can enjoy a good hot meal and meet new people!

4 circuits roll out the white carpet in the Bas-Saint-Laurent region

The Kamouraska Discovery route (200 km) starts in La Pocatière, the gateway to the Bas-Saint-Laurent region.

The route offers superb views of the river and vast stretches of woodland as you discover the Kamouraska region.

The Monts-Notre-Dame Adventure route (390 km) can start in Rivière-du-Loup or Rimouski, and takes in both coastal and upland landscapes… the best of both worlds!

Departing from Pohénégamook, Témiscouata-sur-le-Lac or Dégelis, the Témiscouata Discovery route (268 km) takes you through an undulating region nestled in the heart of rich, unspoiled nature.

This 646 km loop of the La Grande virée du Bas-Saint-Laurent Adventure tour will introduce you to the Bas-Saint-Laurent region.

For great snowmobile explorers, this could well be the gateway to the 1,669 km grand tour of the Bas-Saint-Laurent and Gaspésie regions!
