Great experience, the snowmobile trip is substantial (the lake is about 15 km away or about 20min in the middle of the forest). The landscape is beautiful and the guides are very nice. It takes a lot of luck to catch a fish in winter but the experience of digging your hole to put your line in the water is very satisfying and gives purpose to the snowmobile trip, especially since the barbecue that follows is very convivial. . We loved it, a must for us!

The guide came and pick us up at the hotel, gave us some warm clothing and then off we went with the snowmobiles for about 45 minutes in the nature up until an amazing frozen lake where we fished and caught something! Then we went wild with the snowmobiles on the lake had an amazing lunch next to the fire and then went back on the snowmobiles. The guides were amazing told a lot of stories and fun facts and were really fun to be with!! I’ll highly recommend this experience

We had an incredible time with our guide Sandra. She was really nice and fun. We went in the snow for about 30-40 minutes and then we stopped at a lake to fish and eat. Luckily, we managed to catch perches, while Sandra was starting a fire to grill our sausages. After that we came back. The tour lasts about 4 hours and the experience is really magic + cheap compared to the others. I strongly recommend it !
