Rental of cross-country skis, snowshoes and scooters

*Depending on weather conditions

After seven years, it's become a tradition! Once again this year, La TOHU is lending kites, snowshoes, cross-country skis and snow scooters to help you enjoy the beauty of Frédéric-Back Park. Three trails of varying lengths and degrees of difficulty are available for all to enjoy. The longest, a relatively easy 5.7 km, circles the entire park. Most of it intersects with the walking trail, which is also accessible free of charge. Two other trails are proposed in the Plaine (1.1 km) and Boisé-Est (1.5 km) sectors, being respectively easier and more strenuous.

Take advantage of the lovely winter breeze to go kite flying - the large surface area of the superb park is ideal for this activity. On weekends from January to March, come and brighten up the winter panorama. Sport and nature all in one.

SCHEDULE

Saturdays and Sundays, from January 11 to March 9, 2025, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The cross-country ski and snowshoe rental counter will also be open during Spring Break.
Equipment rentals are for two hours.

PRICE LIST

Skis: $15
Snow scooter: $15

Rental of all equipment is free for Montreal residents under 17.
