Sporty Valentine’s Day: 3 original ideas

Forget the traditional candlelight dinner and roses this year! This Valentine’s Day, it’s all about adventure, adrenalin and unforgettable memories. Why not get off the beaten track and share an experience that combines fun, togetherness and challenge? There’s nothing like a good dose of sport in the great outdoors to strengthen your bonds and create unique moments.

Whether you’re a thrill-seeker, looking for a physical challenge or simply curious to try out new activities, BougeBouge has put together a perfect selection for you: four unusual winter adventures for two around Montreal. An original way to celebrate your love while enjoying the beauty of Quebec‘s snowy landscapes.

Let’s discover these 3 activities together !

Activity 1: Ski Joëring – Let a horse pull you!

Imagine you’re on skis, but instead of hurtling down a slope, you’re being pulled by a racing horse. Yes, that’s exactly what ski joëring is!

This Scandinavian discipline blends gliding and horseback riding for an experience that’s as fun as it is original. You don’t need to be a seasoned rider or a skiing pro: just hold on to a rope, keep your balance and let the speed carry you along.

Thrills guaranteed!

Activity 2: Alpine sledging – Hit the slopes like a pro!

Ever tried tobogganing as a child?

Now imagine an XXL version, with your hair blowing in the wind as you hurtle down a track several kilometers long in the mountains. Alpine luge is the perfect mix of speed and fun. As lovers, you’ll slide down a prepared track, with curves and long straights for maximum speed.

Ah, and by the way, there are several options for getting to the starting point: either with a short snowshoe hike for the more sporty, or aboard a comfortable catski for those who just want to enjoy the sensation without too much effort.

Activity 3: Fatbike in the great outdoors – Pedal on snow as a duo!

The fatbike is the perfect winter alternative for cycling and adventure enthusiasts! With its oversized tires, it’s easy to ride on snow, offering a fun and sporty experience through enchanting trails. Set off as a duo for a dynamic ride through snow-covered forests, where every pedal stroke brings you closer to postcard-perfect scenery. Whether you prefer a leisurely outing or a more athletic ride, fatbikes can be adapted to suit all tastes.
