It usually starts like this: an overstuffed backpack, hyper kids, a half-spilled water bottle… and that tiny moment of doubt—was this outdoor family adventure really a good idea? (Spoiler alert: it totally is.)
Because even with muddy shoes, five-minute snack breaks, and endless “I’m hungry” complaints, there’s real magic in watching your kids scramble up a hill, splash through a stream, or collect rocks like they’re hidden treasure.
To make the experience fun for everyone (yes, including you), a bit of prep goes a long way: comfy clothes, a few smart tricks, and fresh outdoor activity ideas that go beyond the usual.
Good news: you don’t need to spend a fortune to gear up. Our outdoor collection for the whole family combines technical features, comfort, and performance—at prices as gentle as a Quebec summer. For families who want more style and function for less, it’s the perfect match.
Here are our favourite tips—and our go-to activity picks—for turning summer outings into memories your family will want to relive, again and again.

Golden light, quiet waters, and the gentle rhythm of a paddle—sunset paddling is just about asrelaxing as a nap without interruption.

You don’t need Everest. A short hike and a breathtaking view go a long way with young adventurers.
