Ski Chic-Chocs is committed to providing a unique mountain experience in Eastern North America in the Chic-Chocs.
We ski in the following areas: Gaspésie National Park, Chic-Chocs Wildlife Reserve, Mines Madeleine sector and on the coast of Haute-Gaspésie. The sector will be selected based on snow conditions, avalanche risk and weather conditions.
To ski the big lines, you don't have to ski with your whole hockey team. It's more fun with a small group.
Long live the long winters!

Les Mines Madeleines, currently located in the Chic-Chocs wildlife reserve and formerly in the Park, were discovered in 1964. The mining period extended from June 1969 to June 1982.
We will venture on a beautiful 6 km sleigh ride from route 299 towards the McGerrigles.
