The canoe and portage expedition<\/h2>\n

The Travers River tour is what you need to travel back in time and experience the same adventure as the Americans and their guides back in the days of the Triton Fish and Game Club. This trip will remain engraved in the memory of all adventurers who dare to try it! Planned activities: trail portages, canoeing through lakes and rivers, and accommodation in a rustic log camp. There\u2019s nothing like it! This package is for people looking for a good challenge. You don\u2019t need to be an expert, nor even have great knowledge on how to handle or row a canoe. However, it is recommended that you be in good physical shape. This tour is also available to children with good physical endurance, who are good walkers. A guide will be present during the expedition and will help you out with the portage of the canoe. Everyone will have to get involved and help carry canoes, food and luggage.<\/p>\n

*<\/strong> Since the tour takes you into wet areas, the presence of flies and mosquitoes can be quite significant, especially in June and at the beginning of July (depending on hatching). You must therefore bring lightweight, long and light-coloured clothing as well as insect repellant bought in Quebec, and a mosquito net if you want to protect yourself.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row_content_no_spaces” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”1\/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1541448277251{background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}” el_class=”half-image” offset=”vc_hidden-md vc_hidden-sm vc_hidden-xs”][vc_row_inner content_placement=”middle”][vc_column_inner el_class=”bloc-texte” css=”.vc_custom_1496434690493{background: #ffffff url(https:\/\/seigneuriedutriton.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/12\/back_historique.jpg?id=6137) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
