Description

The Bec-Scie Outdoor Center is a natural gem a stone's throw from the city. In our trails with striking and magnificent landscapes in all seasons, you can practice your favorite sports. Several tracks roam the banks of the Rivière-À-Mars to the canyon, a larger-than-life escarpment. In this unique place, you are free to admire the multiple falls as if you were in its heart, cross the river and breathe in a dose of fresh air. Throughout your hike, nature will reveal itself to you. Come and discover our landscaped trails which total more than 120 km. 

Our trails offer you the possibility of cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, fatbiking, mountain biking, hiking, canicross, sliding, quad biking or snowmobiling. Several other unique activities are offered on the site for outdoor enthusiasts!
