The best activities at Club Med's Canadian resort

This is how you can reconnect with your inner child. Club Med Quebec Charlevoix offers a ski run dedicated entirely to sledging. With the slope clocking in at a massive 7.5km, you’ll want to brace yourself for this long and breezy ride. Once you reach the top of the sled run, there’s nowhere to go but down. So, take in the stunning views of the St. Lawrence River and hold on tight until the end. Who’s going to get to the bottom first?

With wolf-like good looks and bull-like strength, our sled dogs will take you on a wild ride across the snowy mountains. Sit back, relax, and listen to the sound of the sleigh sliding on the snow. While this adventure is packed with lots of adrenaline and fun, you’ll want to bring some warm layers to keep you extra cosy.

Nothing beats gliding around in the clean, crisp mountain air of the Charlevoix region. Opened to GMs from 4 years old, even the little ones can seek for thrill in the ice rink. Strap on your skates and practice pirouettes and figures of every kind. But if you’re a beginner, feel free to take it slow. Grab the edge of the rink and slowly, you’ll make progress in no time. Take care not to fall over!
