Tobogganing in Quebec City, on the Dufferin Terrace in front of the Château Frontenac

- Meeting with an Au 1884 employee at the foot of the slide to receive your physical ticket

- Handing over the toboggan

- Bring your toboggan to the top of the slide

- Hand over your ticket and toboggan to an employee who will give you safety instructions

- Installation in the toboggan (1 to 4 participants per toboggan)

- The 250-metre (800 ft.) slide is off to a flying start (about 30 seconds at speeds of up to 70 km/h!)

- The toboggan comes to a complete stop at the end of the run

- Return the toboggan to the employee present (unless you have another ticket for another run, in which case you will be able to go back up the slide) and the activity ends

Participants must be able to walk uphill on a 15-degree gradient for 90 metres pulling their toboggan.

Children (under 10) must be accompanied by an adult in the toboggan.

This activity is free for children under 2 years old.

This activity is not recommended for pregnant people or infants under the age of one, and not accessible to people who are unable to walk.

Depending on how busy the site is, please allow a little time for your toboggan to arrive (usually 5 to 20 minutes maximum).
