Every winter, small fishing shanties are set up on the ice bridge that forms between Île Verte and the southern shore of the St. Lawrence. Although the season is short, it is such great fun fish for smelt in the middle of the river. Ice fishing packages with accommodations on the island are available – just ask!
In the mood for a little winter getaway on Île Verte? There’s nothing better than snowshoeing or cross-country skiing to explore the island and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
For the islanders, any time is the right time to get together, have some fun and enjoy the great outdoors. Visitors are always welcome to join in!
During the winter, all the island’s roads become snowmobile trails. Whether for pleasure or necessity, snowmobiles are the only vehicle that can be used to get around on the snow-covered island.
