About
Nomade Quad offers unique, immersive and personalized experiences with 100% electric and quiet side-by-sides.
Our adventures invite visitors to connect with the land, nature, culture and especially the local people. Each journey becomes a human experience, where meetings, conversations and discoveries help travelers experience the warm and welcoming culture of Quebec.
Tailor-made to each traveler’s interests and wishes, every adventure can include different activities, stops and visits: wild food picking, swimming in the Saguenay Fjord, tasting local products, discovering special places, meeting local people, spending time with local producers and partners, or taking part in an Indigenous cultural experience.
In small groups, travelers have time to connect with the people they meet and learn about their way of life, their stories, their culture and their connection to the land.
The electric side-by-side connects adventure, nature, people and culture. Its quiet ride lets visitors fully enjoy the natural environment: the songs of birds, the smell of the forest and the sound of rivers along the way.

Why this experience is a must
This experience grew from a relationship of trust between Nomade Quad and Indigenous culture bearers, speakers and knowledge keepers, united by a shared desire to create an authentic encounter between cultures.
It offers a contemporary approach, far removed from folklore, where Innu culture is shared with respect, openness and honesty by those who live it and pass it on. This partnership creates a meaningful space for exchange, where guests can ask questions, listen, share and connect with others.
An enriching human experience for both visitors and hosts, built on reciprocity, curiosity and respect for cultures.
03. The Peribonka river
From the Otis Nature Outdoor Centre, discover a protected, almost uninhabited territory where the Péribonka River flows through an ancient forest. The adventure begins by crossing Lake Tchitogama aboard a private ferry designed for off-road vehicles.
Once on the other side, ride your side-by-side along trails following the majestic Péribonka River. Maple forests, wetlands, sandy shores and wide-open wilderness unfold along the way. The 49th Parallel Footbridge offers a unique view over this natural corridor and its rich biodiversity.
A true immersion in a wild and spectacular territory, where water, forests and mountains shape the adventure.
