Most frequently asked questions

s Incident management and supervision
Voir plus

In case of rain, for example, our activities proceed as scheduled. Therefore, we recommend that you remain attentive to the weather conditions and prepare appropriate clothing to cope with potential inclement weather during your package stay in the region.

In the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean area, microclimates are observed. This means that weather conditions can vary significantly over short distances. For instance, heavy rainfall may occur in certain areas for a brief period, while others remain sunny. This variation creates periods of good weather between rain episodes. Hence, before utilizing our services, please wait to see if the heavy rainfall indeed passes.

In case of extreme temperatures considered dangerous for your safety, such as torrential rains and violent and incessant thunderstorms, we may, depending on the specifics of your situation, arrange either personal transportation, coordinate a resource, or direct you to the nearest resource from your location, so that you can reach your destination safely.

In all cases, and particularly to safeguard against natural disasters (e.g., forest fires, floods, etc.), we recommend purchasing a travel insurance. It is possible that we may determine our services can proceed even if you feel the conditions are not sufficiently favorable. In such cases, our cancellation policies will apply.

s Can I book over the phone?
Voir plus

To avoid telephone traffic and potential errors due to misunderstandings, reservations are made on our website via the appropriate platform for the desired service.

s Are there bottle cages on the bikes?
Voir plus

Our bikes have bottle holders, with the exception of electric, children's and some hybrid bikes.

In order to avoid any misunderstanding, you can mention in the comments when making your reservation that you want a bicycle with a bottle holder.

s Are there racks on the bikes?

Cyclocross bikes all have a rack for panniers.

Hybrid bikes have, for the most part, racks for panniers.

Road bikes do not have a rack for panniers.

Electric bikes do not have a rack for panniers.

Children's bikes do not have a rack for the panniers.

s The prices displayed on your site are in what currency?
Voir plus

We only use the Canadian dollar (CAD). The final cost in your currency will therefore depend on the prevailing rates and the policies of your financial institution.

s What equipment is provided during a bicycle rental?
Voir plus

During a bicycle rental, the provided equipment generally includes:

  • The bicycle of your choice.
  • A protective helmet.
  • A lock to secure the bicycle during stops.
