Sutton is one of our favorite places in Quebec as it offers all kinds activities like kayaking, hiking and more like skiing and mountain biking.
Some of the activities that i will mention are within 15-30min of driving and allow you to discouver even more of Quebec's Montégirie region.
So lets get into it!
Not too far up the mountain on the Rue Maple, there is a Ski station the durring the summer offers many activities including Mountain biking. The mountain offers many biking trails from advanced to beginner, although for a small price.
for more information go to their Website.
Also at Mont Sutton is a zipline activity that is honestly the funnest activity there apart from the mountain biking. you have two options for this activity. the first is the longest zipline in the Montégirie region and the second is the sort of a hanging roller coaster where you go through spins and tiny straight lines where you pick more speed up.
for more information on the longest one or the the curving one go to their Website
Also at Mont Sutton, there is Frisbee Golf which is also a type of golf with simular goals as normal golf except you are throwing the frisbee to the best of your ability towards the goal net.
For more information you can go to Mont Sutton's Website
Not too far from the Mont Sutton and near up the mountain, there is a PENS or the Park d'environment de nature de Sutton is a small cabin where there is a starting point for most of their hiking trails and for a small access fee that drives the company to keep the trails open and give you the best expirience while hiking as well as asks for help of the local to keep the trails usable and also gives the local some control in what happens there. A great way to give locals a great expirience with the hiking facility. I highly recomend comming durring the winter to enjoy the amazing views at the top of the round top or go visit the Spruce lake.
