Motorsports in La Tuque and Haut-Saint-Maurice Imprimer Envoyer

Haut-Saint-Maurice has literally hundreds of miles of well-maintained and signposted off-road vehicle trails, punctuated by numerous welcoming relay stations. The region is a strategic crossroads between the Lac-Saint-Jean, Abitibi and central Mauricie regions.

Maps and labels

Snowmobile trail maps are available at the Fédération des clubs de motoneigistes du Québec (Québec snowmobile club federation) and Tourisme Mauricie. Maps of ATV or dirt bike trails can be obtained from the federations, various clubs and Tourisme Haut-Saint-Maurice. A map of Haut-Saint-Maurice’s logging roads is also available at a minimal cost.

In the forest, it is vital to bring along extra gasoline.

There are no federated ATV trails in winter.
