The 5th edition of the Coast Raid will be held over 4 days and nights from August 21st to August 24th in one of wildest region of Canada.

The Lower North Shore is a wild stretch of coastline dotted with islands, passages, and sandy beaches. The Gulf of St. Lawrence resembles the ocean here, with whales, seabirds and the occasional iceberg that drifts down from Greenland. Fast-flowing salmon rivers cross boulder fields and tundra. The natural resources of this seemingly barren land have attracted many people for thousands of years, from the ancient Maritime Archaic Indians to today's French, English and Innu-speaking inhabitants. Today, some 5,000 residents of the Lower North Shore make this isolated and grandiose landscape our home. They call it the Coast, and refer to themselves as Coasters.

The Coast Raid is a 300 km stage race including day and night racing run in teams of two or four . Teams are required to provide a minimum of mandatory equipment. If you're wild enough to show up for the Coast Raid, you better know what to bring with you!
