Snowshoeing route Sentiers des Cerfs

Presentation
Nice loop adapted to all levels. Called the Deer Track due to the deers living in that area. Depending on snow conditions, this loop can be done without snowshoes.
A short, steep climb leads to the Mouilles watering hole, a favorite haunt of large deer. This area is often frequented by deer, so look out for their tracks along the trail. Leave early in the morning to catch a glimpse of one. Loop itinerary, marked trail.
