Grand Poobah Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 Next week, want to go sledding in Val D'or. Called Forestel and they are booked solid the first night. What other places would you all recommend? We probably will drive over to Forestel the next morning and unload from there. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubler Posted March 10, 2021 Report Share Posted March 10, 2021 I stay at the comfort inn on the other end of town. Not too much sidewalk to ride to get to trail, maybe 2-3 blocks going from memory. Rooms were on the small side and not ideal for snowmobilers from a gear perspective, but we made it work. Parking not great either but again, we made it work. Breakfast was acceptable too. Gas station right next to it on the way to trail. I would definitely stay there again if I had to but would not be my first choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Michael des Saints club and St Zenon I believe were both asking cooperation from snowmobilers to not ride until the temperatures drop and the club can get it back open if possible. Have not seen Abitibi in person if the snow was not like a real snow year then perhaps it is over in Abitibi. Depends how much snow they had and how much they could afford to lose. Lost alot near towns mostly. Here in Gaspe. Mud and Asphalt to get to Gas in Matane today. Snow level dropped big.
