Exciting winter tobog

Emocionante tobogã de inverno

O Glissade de la Terrasse Dufferin é o tobogã de inverno em frente ao Château Frontenac. Ele é uma atração da cidade desde 1884 - inclusive é mais antigo que o próprio Château! Nos seus 130 anos de existência, esteve fechado apenas durante os anos 1980. Com 3 pistas de descida, até 12 pessoas podem descer juntas o tobogã - em cada pista desce um trenó que comporta até 4 pessoas. Os bilhetes são vendidos no quiosque do Au 1884 (Princesse Louise), e os trenós disponíveis ficam no final da pista; cada pessoa ou grupo leva seu próprio trenó até o topo do tobogã, e lá de cima a descida é numa velocidade de até 70km/h. A vista é obviamente muito bonita, com o Frontenac e o rio Saint-Laurent e toda a neve pela volta. Ao se chegar no fim do tobogã, imediatamente a vontade é de descer de novo! Normalmente funciona de dezembro a março, dependendo das condições climáticas.
The Glissade de la Terrasse Dufferin winter tobog in front of the Château Frontenac. He one attraction of the city since 1884 - even older than the Château own! In its 130 years of existence, was closed only during the 1980s with three downhill runs, up to 12 people can fall together the tobog - on each track down a sled that holds up to 4 people. The only tickets sold at the kiosk AU 1884 (Princesse Louise), and the trains are available at the end of the runway; each person or group takes its own tren at the top of tobog, el up and down at a speed of at 70km / h. Very beautiful view of course, with the Frontenac and the St. Lawrence River and all the snow for the return. When reaching the end of tobog, immediately want to go down again! Usually works from December to March, depending on climatic conditions.

This bobsleigh is quite unusual, it is...

Cette piste de bobsleigh est assez...

Cette piste de bobsleigh est assez atypique, elle se situe sur la terrasse Dufferin à côté du château de Frontenac. Elle n'est active que l'hiver. Ce qui est génial c'est qu'elle est orientée dans la direction du château, donc vous descendez cette piste qui se prolonge par une partie de la terrasse et vous arrivez près du château. Même si je n'ai pas pu essayer car j'ai visité Québec l'été, quand on voit cette piste on est comme un enfant et on meurt d'envie d'essayer.
This bobsleigh is quite unusual, it is on the Dufferin Terrace beside the Chateau Frontenac. It is only active during the winter. What's great is that it is oriented in the direction of the castle, so you go down this path that extends through a portion of the terrace and you get near the castle. Even though I could not try it because I visited Quebec in the summer when we see this track are like a child and is dying to try.
