Looking for a thrilling outdoor adventure?

From Snow Bobsleigh and Vortex360 to Snow Rafting, Tornado, and Tubing, there’s an adventure here for everyone.

Le Domaine des Pays d’en Haut began as a popular sugar shack.

Founded by Arthur and Laurette Raymond in the 50s, it featured two slopes and a crossbow-style lift for thrilling toboggan rides before gaining fame for its sliding hills.

The tradition lives on three generations later as the largest tubing park in the world, nestled in the hills near the ski hill Saint-Sauveur.

Les Glissades boasts 63 slopes for all skill levels, 15,000 lift rides per hour, and an 80-metre vertical drop across three peaks with 13 snow ride zones.

Bonus: there’s a DJ on-site every Saturday from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.

When does the sliding season begin and end?

Thanks to new-generation snow cannons, the sliding season at Les Glissades du Domaine des Pays d’en Haut can now start earlier than ever, often making it the first to open in Québec’s winter sliding industry.

The exact opening date depends on weather conditions, however Les Glissades du Domaine des Pays d’en Haut is officially open for the 2025 season.

Updates on slope openings are shared on the website and social media. Typically, the Tube slopes open first, followed by the Rafting-Tornade slopes, and finally the Bobsleigh-Vortex360 slopes.

Les Glissades du Domaine des Pays d’en Haut reserves the right to temporarily close the site, certain sliding areas, or specific slopes without prior notice or compensation due to safety concerns or seasonal changes.

As spring temperatures rise, the snow season inevitably comes to an end.
