À L'Abordage in Mont-Tremblant, QC, runs canoe and kayak rentals with a shuttle upriver for an easy downstream paddle on the Rivière du Diable. Well organized, beginner-friendly and scenic.
À L'Abordage rents canoes and kayaks for self-guided trips down the Rivière du Diable near Mont-Tremblant. A shuttle takes paddlers roughly 10 to 12 km upriver, and you paddle back to the base at your own pace.
Reviewers describe a well-organized, friendly operation that gets groups on and off the water efficiently. The river is calm and the paddling easy, which suits beginners, though a double kayak over 12 km is still around three hours of steady exercise. One group was back in about three hours, including a 45-minute lunch stop.
Along the way there are small beaches for resting or swimming, and the scenery gets consistent praise. A few paddlers spotted wildlife, and one was pleasantly surprised by how few mosquitoes there were.
Arrive on time or early, since the shuttle leaves on schedule. Bring snacks and water for the trip.
