On Saturday, we will hike "Les Loups" and "Le Scotora" trails, an overall round trip distance of 25km. These trails are rated as difficult in Sepaq website, however, I don't see any problem to cover them in one day without carrying our packs since we leave our camping equipment at the staging point. The two main summits that we will be targeting are Mont-Andante (2655 ft) and Mont-Allegro (2495 ft). Sunday morning, depending on how in shape the group is, we may hike "Les Coulées" trail, a 10km intermediate loop trail in a few hours. Sunday afternoon, on the way back to Montreal, we will stop by Vieux Quebec (Old Quebec) and Chateau Frontenac for a couple of hours for sightseeing. Date: Friday Sept. 17th (4pm) - Sunday Sept. 19th (7pm) Sign-Ups: Starting at the meeting on Sept. 7th Cost: $55 Includes: Transportation gas, Trail access fee, Campground fee, but no food Contact: For the absolute latest on trip announcements, keep an eye on the listserv and the forum. | ||
