Forillon National Park
At the extreme northeast end of the Gaspé Peninsula, 700 km from Québec and 350 km from the New Brunswick boundary, via Highway 132 East
Shaped by erosion, Forillon National Park offers an impressive, natural decor with its majestic mountains, its meadows dotted with wildflowers, its coves lined by pebble beaches, as well as its steep cliffs overshadowing the sea.
Forillon shelters various and easy to observe species of wildlife, such as the black bear and the moose, and also important colonies of seabirds, for example, the double-crested cormorant, the black-legged kittiwake gull, and the razorbill. In the park's water, meet different seals and whales species, such as fin whales, minke whales, and atlantic white-sided dolphins.
All year round, you may participate in numerous activities that will allow you to discover this beautiful haven. Forillon is a vacation destination made especially for you! ©Parks Canada
