The Gaspésie is one of the regions of Québec that receive the most snow; a pure paradise for snowmobilers. About 2,000 kilometres of trails circle the region and invite you to enjoy the wonders of winter in a setting of glittering ice and snow-covered mountains. Twenty or so clubs offer many services, such as trail pass purchasing and maintenance of the trails and stopover facilities. Hotels, convenience stores and garages are also located along the entire route. Live a group experience and take advantage of the warm Gaspesian welcome.
All snowmobilers using Québec trails must obtain a membership card or a trail pass at the snowmobiling clubs, at Info-motoneigiste Gaspésie and at the Fédération des clubs de motoneigistes du Québec (FCMQ), (514) 252-3076, www.fcmq.qc.ca.
We invite snowmobilers to visit the website www.admdq.org in order to get their membership for the Quebec Snowmobilers Association at the cost of only 20 dollars per year to take advantage of many benefits.
