In winter, the archipelago of Saint-Pierre and Miquelon changes coat, in order to cover itself with an outfit sometimes white, sometimes icy, but always with the colors and the subarctic atmospheres that this season offers with brilliance in the region.
Winter is certainly conducive to "hut tides" during which the wind, powder or rain makes the hinterland difficult to pass... Nevertheless, once the snow is deposited and the wind is tolerable, nothing prevents you from going on an adventure in frozen bogs or rocky hills, quite the contrary!
You can then discover the archipelago on a day hike, sleep in a tent to experience the winter bivouac, or in the shelter of an isolated cabin in Miquelon or Langlade... The winter season offers possibilities for experiments more or less committed that leave deep-rooted memories, and give a different flavor to the hot drink we drink on the way home...
