Where to Rent an ATV in Quebec in 2026: Complete Guide
By the Groupe Contant Team · Published July 8, 2026
Quick Answer
Where can you rent an ATV in Quebec in 2026?
ATV rentals are offered by outfitters and adventure centres across several Quebec regions, notably the Laurentians, Lanaudière, Mauricie, and Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean. Prices typically run $200–$400 per day depending on the model. A photo ID, a valid driver's license, and a security deposit are usually required — most outfitters also set their own 18+ minimum, independent of the legal minimum age. Groupe Contant, for its part, runs a "try before you buy" program on its Can-Am 3-wheel lineup (Spyder, Ryker, Canyon).
Whether you want to try an ATV before buying, plan a group outing, or get an off-road experience without the commitment of ownership, renting is a great option in Quebec. The province's trail network — over 30,000 km — offers adventures for every skill level.
In this guide, we explain how ATV rental works in Quebec, where to find reliable outfitters, what to expect to pay, and the "try before you buy" option Groupe Contant offers on its Can-Am 3-wheel lineup.
What to Know Before Renting an ATV
- A valid driver's license — legally required from age 18, and required as a matter of business policy by nearly every outfitter
- A photo ID
- A credit card for the security deposit
- The ATV competency certificate — only relevant if the renter is 16 or 17, a rare scenario in a rental context
- A helmet, usually included — check the certification before accepting it
- Basic damage coverage (a deductible may apply)

What Groupe Contant Offers as a Try-Before-You-Buy Option
Groupe Contant doesn't rent ATVs, side-by-sides, or snowmobiles directly. Our "try before you buy" rental program currently focuses on the Can-Am 3-wheel lineup — Spyder, Ryker, and Canyon — available at all 5 of our locations. For a Can-Am ATV or side-by-side, each location holds one trail demo-ride day per year, limited to current-year demo-stock models — often organized with a local ATV club, by appointment.

Generally not for an adult aged 18 or older — a valid driver's license is legally enough to access official trails, and that's what outfitters check in most cases. The FQCQ competency certificate only becomes relevant again if the renter is 16 or 17.
Some outfitters offer closed-course intro sessions for beginners. A valid driver's license and the outfitter's minimum age (often 18) are still required to access official trails, though.
It depends on the outfitter. Some include the daily trail-access fee in their package; others don't. Confirm when booking.
Not directly — our rental program currently focuses on the Can-Am 3-wheel lineup (Spyder, Ryker, Canyon). For a Can-Am ATV, each location holds one trail demo-ride day per year, by appointment, for current-year demo-stock models. Also browse our new or used inventory.
