Built for trail energy

A stop that can handle a serious ride.

800

Fort Ouest hosted the first ten years of La Classique du Printemps and welcomed as many as 800 dual-sport motorcycles. The event has grown, but that trail culture remains part of the place.

Off-road events

Bring the route idea. We’ll discuss the stop.

Contact the team about off-road gatherings, food service and possible use of the site.

Skills & safety

Training has a place here too.

Certified BMW Germany instructor Claude Gagné of Académie Ridaventure occasionally offers trail-riding training at Fort Ouest and elsewhere in Quebec.
