Pass By: Mont Tremblant Activity Centre, 118 Chemin Kandahar, Mont Tremblant, Quebec J8E 1E2 Canada
You’ll start your day at rafting basecamp (approx 1 hour drive) where you will meet our guides. After signing in at the reception, you will be transported by bus to the starting point on the river.
You’ll start with a safety briefing and then get into your boat, an inflatable raft that can accommodate 6 to 10 people. Your professional guide will practice basic rafting manoeuvres with you. Before each rapid, we will explain what to do and how to react. One of the Rouge River’s many advantages is having calm pools after each rapid, making the descent fun and diversified.
You will do two descents of the river (16 km or approx 4 hours of rafting) and in between have a riverside picnic lunch where you will have time to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the river but also its many sandy beaches. Between rapids, there are golden beaches and great places for bodysurfing and floating in the current.
Afterwards, you will return to basecamp where you can enjoy some “après-rafting” fun in the 2 large hot tubs and the pool. Our basecamp facilities also include showers and lockers and a snack bar.
You will end your day with a delicious steak or salmon dinner and a multi-media presentation of your day of rafting!
