Onatchiway private trail system


Recommended Posts

So this year I’ve been hearing about the separate trail system and was just curious about it will be heading up to the area in the next few weeks so figured I’d ask here. Are these separate trails then what’s on the maps and FCMQ app, for example the trails the lead into the onatchiway relay  I believe it’s 476 and what about the 373 that leads into and out of the relay? And info is greatly appreciated thanks!

Any way to get the website in English? Have you ridden the trails in the zec and how are they well groomed I assume not much traffic. Where is the main entrance to the private system?

You should be able to right click on the page and then click on "Translate to English".  It should work on any page you want to translate.

Also, there are only 250 km of groomed trails. If you’re up for a bit more of an adventure, there are many many more roads of non groomed areas to explore. Had the chance to meet up with some of the locals, very nice folks. Probably several hundred or more cabins around the lakes which are many.

I did ride the private trail system last year. Trails are very well maintained and worth the extra money. After two days you’ll want to venture out.

There are these guys from Toronto that have a YouTube channel (Sledaddics), they were up there for a week and did post a video of doing the private trail system.
