The Laurentians are the ultimate destination for snowmobiling and Saint Agathe-des-Monts is the birthplace of the first snowmobile club in the world in 1964.
Either with friends or as a couple, it is an unforgettable experience. Our region is known as one of the best snowmobiling spots in North America with its excellent snowfall and varying terrain and trails. Its snowy white carpet is perfect for beginners and the more experienced.
The Nordic Experience is a great way to discover snowmobiling, you will get to admire the wild landscapes of the boreal forest and the white mountains of the Laurentians. You can take pictures and, with a little luck, you might even see wild deer.
Your tour will begin with a dressing session, at which point the cold weather equipment will be provided. A short briefing indicating the required conduct and a summary of safety information will follow.
During the tour, you will follow your certified guide on the federated snowmobile trails accessible to beginners.
*The Nordic Experience duration can vary between 1.5 and 2 hours according to the snow conditions in the trails: less trails are usually available at the beginning and at the end of the season.

SECURITY DEPOSIT
A security deposit of $2,500.00 + taxes is mandatory. This deposit is secured prior to the activity through a preauthorization (temporary hold) on a Visa or Mastercard credit card. If no damage occurs to the equipment during the activity, the preauthorization will be canceled after the activity. Please understand that a delay may occur for the funds to become available again on your card depending on your financial institution (especially those outside of Canada).
An alternative option is offered: you can choose to pay a non-refundable fee of $50 to decrease the security deposit to $1,000.00 + taxes. This option does not involve any temporary hold; instead, credit card information is collected. If no damage occurs to the equipment during the activity, this information will be destroyed, and no charges will be incurred.
In the event of damage to the equipment during the activity, the total amount of the security deposit ($2,500 + tax or $1,000 + tax, depending on the chosen option) will be deducted. Following a formal assessment of the damages, you will receive an itemized invoice detailing the costs associated with necessary repairs. If this amount is less than your security deposit, the difference will be refunded.

Refusal or inability to pay the deposit by the client automatically entails the cancellation of the tour without refund.
