The scene:There’s no denying the appeal of this triple-sector conservation area (Baie-Éternité, Tadoussac, and Baie-Sainte-Marguerite) that was set up as a national park in 1983. Located along the eastern end of the Saguenay River, it packs plenty into its 319.3 square kilometres; mostly superb wildlife (wolf, black bear, moose), a series of bays, ...
The scene:Created in 1937 to protect the caribou of the Gaspé Peninsula, the salmon of the Sainte-Anne River, and the natural beauty of two of Québec's most beautiful mountain ranges (Chic Choc and McGerrigle), this 802-kilometre-squared national park is located in the heart of the Gaspé Peninsula, just eight hours from Montreal. Complete with 25 m...
The scene:Named for its curious carpets of ground lichen, ancient boreal forest, and Arctic vegetation (somewhat of a rarity at this northern latitude), this 310-kilometres-squared wonderland (translating as Grand Gardens) is a huge draw for hikers, campers, wildlife-lovers, and anglers. Located in the UNESCO-listed Charlevoix region, you’ll find a...
The scene:It’s all about nature at this fabled 33-kilometres-squared coastal marine park on the south shore of the St. Lawrence River Estuary, only five hours from Montreal and three hours from Quebec City. Given that approximately half of the surface is water, the landscape here is simply stunning - especially during the winter when the headlands,...
The scene:Once you’ve worked your way into this 244-kilometres-squared paradise on the Gaspé Peninsula’s northeastern-most tip (there’s confusingly two entrances with visitor centres; one at L'Anse au Griffon and another at Penouille), you’re rewarded with majestic mountains, lush forests, meadows dotted with wildflowers, sand dunes, pebble beaches...
The scene:The plateaus, deep glacial valleys, and green rolling hills take centre stage at this 600-kilometres-squared wilderness park just 30 minutes from Quebec City. Most worthy of your attention is the wildlife (moose, bears, white-tailed deer, foxes, wolves), the different types of bird (around 160), and the picture-perfect walking and hiking ...
The scene:Covering some 536 kilometres, this stunning park north of Trois-Rivières in the spectacular Laurentian Mountains is halfway between Montréal and Québec City (it’s a two-hour drive from both cities). Seductive in spring and summer for its canoeing, hiking, swimming, recreational fishing, and trail bicycling, and during autumn and winter fo...
The scene:Established as a national park by the Canadian government in 2000 (although it was on UNESCO’s radar years before as one of the core Biosphere Reserve of Charlevoix zones), this hinterland jewel takes its name from the network of deeply-carved gorges set against a mountainous backdrop. Covering 224 kilometres squared, it offers seven dedi...
The scene:Accessed only by ferry, this near-surreal (and hard-to-pronounce) conservation area located at the tip of the Gaspé Peninsula encompasses both Bonaventure Island the iconic Rocher Percé (Pierced Rock). Home to the largest migratory bird refuge in North America (there’s around 250,000 birds, including 116,000 Northern Gannets), you’ll find...
