Winter Adventures Amidst
Spectacular National Parks
Nunavik shelters true gems of nature
that are sure to delight fans of the great
outdoors and winter sports enthusiasts
alike, whether it's backcountry skiing,
alpine snowshoeing, snowmobiling or
even fat biking off the beaten tracks.
In the Kuururjuaq National Park,
follow in the Inuit's footsteps by taking
the ancient path of the Koroc River
valley winding frozen at the foot of the
Torngat Mountains, the highest peaks
of Québec.
In the Tursujuq National Park—the
largest of Québec—explore frozen
inland seas surrounded by Hudson
cuestas, where you might encounter
small herds of muskoxen, taken
straight out of the Ice Age.
And should you choose to visit the
Pingualuit National Park, be ready to
travel to a moon-like landscape leading
to the amazing meteoritic crater, the
park's treasure. All this while being
immersed in the Inuit culture, sharing
their traditional way of life daily during
these authentic winter adventures.
