Northern Quebec: Winter Lodge Escape
Winter in Quebec’s boreal forests and along the dramatic cliffs of the Saguenay Fjord might not be on your radar - but this seven-day adventure will have you falling hard for Canada’s most underrated season. After a quick stop in Montreal, head into a snowy wilderness where you’ll stay in a cozy chalet lodge, snowshoe to a panoramic lighthouse, and learn how maple syrup goes from tree to table at a classic sugar shack. Try your hand at ice fishing, dog sledding, winter survival skills, and snow tubing - then wind down with stargazing and marshmallows by the fire. Who says summer gets all the fun?

Highlights
Embrace the magic of Canada’s winter wonderland, Snowshoe along the stunning Saguenay Fjord with sweeping views, Try your hand at mushing on a dog sled ride through snowy forest trails, Stay cozy in a chalet tucked atop the Saguenay cliffs, Stargaze beneath the clear dark winter sky, Learn winter survival basics with an ice fishing demo on a frozen lake

Accomodation
Carved by glacier forces thousands of years ago, the Saguenay fjord is located in the stunning Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean region of Quebec. This location is a true gem for outdoor enthusiasts looking to encounter breathtaking scenery. Stretching over 100 km, surrounded by steep cliffs, the fjord is so deep, it attracts whales at its mouth to the river. Located right next to the cozy Auberge du Cap au Leste, this unique microclimate of abundant snow offers a variety of winter activities that create an unforgettable experience. From snowshoeing to backcountry skiing, your stay at this property allows you to enter the peace and quiet of a Canadian winter wonderland in a serene setting.

Group Leader
This G Adventures group trip is accompanied by one of our group leaders, otherwise known as a Chief Experience Officer (CEO). The CEO will be the group manager, leader and driver - this person is experienced in the routes travelled and will organize and lead the meal preparations and has experience in cooking a variety of local and international dishes for large groups. As the group coordinator and manager, the aim of the CEO is to take the hassle out of your travels and to help you have the best trip possible. While not being guides in the traditional sense, you can expect them to have a broad general knowledge of the countries visited on the trip, including historical, cultural, religious and social aspects. They will also offer suggestions for things to do and to see, recommend great local eating venues and introduce you to our local friends. We also use local guides where we think more specific knowledge will add to the enjoyment of the places we are visiting - we think it's the best of both worlds.
