The Traversée de Charlevoix

TRAIL CONDITIONS UPDATE -❄️ – Friday, March 14th, 2025

Spring conditions! Conditions varies depending on temperatures. Don’t forget to check the weather and plan your expedition accordingly!

➡Long-distance hiking trail: Spring conditions to monitor daily. The snow will be hard-packed or icy in cold temperatures and soft in mild temperatures. Caution is advised, and we recommend bringing crampons for added safety, so you can take off your skis if the trail is icy on a more technical section. Be careful, however, not to step in ski tracks, which could endanger the safety of those behind you by creating holes.
Several fallen trees, especially on the second half. Bringing a small saw is a plus!

➡Mont du Dôme trail: Hard, icy snow in cold weather and soft snow in mild weather. Bring your snowshoes AND crampons.

➡Mont du Lac-à-l’Empêche and Du Four trails (Lac-à-L’Écluse sector): Hard, icy snow in cold weather and soft snow in mild weather. Bring your snowshoes AND crampons.

➡Other trails in the Lac à l’Écluse sector: Hard, icy snow in cold weather and soft snow in mild weather. Bring your snowshoes AND crampons.

For the trails and shelters located near Lac-à-l’Écluse, remember that registration is mandatory with the ZEC des Martres, and that parking is 3.4 km from the trailhead.
