*** Activity exclusively reserved for Université Laval students***
*** The activity of the 18th is rescheduled to Friday February 25th ***
In Québec, winter is synonymous with outdoor activities each more unique than the other. One of the classic is outdoor skating. This February, come and enjoy this traditional winter sport at the Parc de glisse du Grand-Héron in Sainte-Catherine-de-la-Jacques-Cartier, where it is possible to skate on almost 3km of trails throughout the woods. This place is often listed as one of the 10 best places to skate in the province of Québec. An unforgettable experience!
Whether you are already a pro skater or just beginning to discover this sport, it’s possible to join us. During the activity, our volunteers will be there to help you improve your technique and help you out in case of need. Beware; this activity is not a course, so it is not aimed for complete beginners.
It is not possible this years to rent skates on site. Therefore, it is better to bring your own or rent some at the PEPS for $10 for 24h and bring them with you. Second-hand skates can be bought in most used goods stores or on the classified ads site Kijiji.
During this activity we propose two hours of free skating.
