All aboard for a truly unique snowmobiling adventure!
Your excursion begins at our depot in downtown Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario,
Canada, where you will load up your sleds in our enclosed baggage cars and
then sit back and relax as we transport you north, through the breathtaking
winter wonderland of Algoma Country.
Enjoy scenic vistas of Lake Superior, snow choked rock cuts and deep
mountain gorges as you wind your way through this rugged land towards the
world famous Agawa Canyon. Once through the Canyon, the scenery gradually
shifts from the mountainous pre-Cambrian shield to the boreal forests of
the James Bay Frontier.
Get off along the line at Hawk Junction or Dubreuilville and hit the trails
in Algoma Country, or travel to the end of steel to begin your James Bay
Frontier sledding adventure in the French Canadian town of Hearst, Ontario.
No matter where you choose, you will be in the heart of an incredible
snowmobilers paradise with over a thousand miles of well groomed and signed
trails waiting for you to discover.
Your sledding adventure doesn't stop at the trails. You will discover
friendly communities offering snowmobilers all the conveniences and
comforts you desire after a day of riding. From quality, park at your door
accommodations and restaurants to service centres, trail-side gas and local
snowmobile clubs who take pride in their trails and northern hospitality.
The spirit of the north truly comes to life in winter. Hearst and the
surrounding communities love to play host and with numerous carnivals,
rallies and snowmobile racing events being held throughout the winter
months, you will find more than trails to fill your days and nights.
Whether it's a couple of sleds, a large group, diehard riders or a relaxing
family outing, incredible snowmobile experiences are waiting for you along
the line.
Before planning your next snowmobile holiday, contact the Algoma Central
Railway and let us help you "Get on Track to the Trails."
