This winter, offer yourself a great time as a couple or with the kids as you discover these three unusual activities. We guarantee there will be plenty of laughter and fun!
When you go to the Sutton ski hill, you’ll discover this unusual yet easy-to-handle contraption, which will allow you to head down the slopes in a seated position. Have we piqued your curiosity? The Eastern Townships Tourism editorial team tested this thrilling activity last winter. They’ll have you discover what it means to go down a hill on a yooner in their own words and pictures right here!
Duration: 2 hours
Cost: $54 to rent your yooner for your lift ticket.
On a kicksled, all you need to do is yourself give a few push kicks to start gliding on the snow or ice. You can rent a kicksled by going to Parc de la Gorge de Coaticook and enjoy a ride on the trails! Want to share the adventure with your furry friend? For just $5 extra, rent dog traction equipment on site and let your pup pull you through the snowy landscapes. Learn more by reading Laetitia Clouzot’s blog, where she shares her experience!
Cost: $12,50 per hour
When the sun goes down, the adventure continues at Domaine Lac Brompton! With over 25 km of well-maintained trails, the site invites thrill-seekers to experience fatbiking… at night. Every Wednesday from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., fatbike and light rentals are available on site so you can ride safely after dark. Too busy during the day? This is the perfect excuse to enjoy a unique winter outing under the stars.
