<b>Additional information :</b>
<li><b>Not in Mont-Tremblant region:</b> Before moving to the Rouge River we had our start right beside Mont-Tremblant on the Devil’s river in the early 1990’s. Rafting has been popular with visitors to Mont-Tremblant since the late 1990s, with shuttle buses to our Basecamp a few times a week. It is a longstanding popular activity for guests from Tremblant, <b>but our base is NOT not in Tremblant</b>. So if you are rafting with us and leaving from Montreal or Ottawa don’t come to Mont-Tremblant. Follow the directions we send to go straight to our rafting base. If home is Montreal or Toronto or even the USA, consider placing your rafting trip at the end of your visit to Mont-Tremblant as it’s on your way home.</li>
<li>Duration: 2 hours of rafting or sportyaking. The total duration, including driving (or transportation) time, and briefing is around 5 hours.</li>
<li>Participants will meet at our base camp and can leave a bag there.</li>
<li>In low season (May, Jun, Sep, Oct) we may cancel (rarely) if we can’t fill an entire raft. If we don’t have the minimum number of participants, the activity will not be offered.</li>
<li>For guests who choose to reserve in advance (recommended), directions to meeting points will be provided in your reservation by email. Otherwise, directions will be handed to you when you reserve at The Activity Centre.</li>
<li>Prices do not include taxes or <a href="https://www.tremblantactivities.com/resort-royalty/"> mandatory resort royalty of 3%</a> and may be subject to change without notice.</li></p>
