Outdoor Activities - Summer and Fall

Canoeing, Kayaking and Water Sports Activities

The many lakes each have their own characteristics and offer conditions that are sure to please water sports enthusiasts, whatever their preferences. Lac Loïs, one of the largest lakes in the park, is also a wonderful spot for sea kayaking. When you go canoeing or rabaska canoeing on the La Haie and Sault fault lakes, you will discover the geological side of the park. If you would like to bring your own boat, please note that access to certain lakes is difficult. It is important to get information from a reception clerk. Boat rental is possible for the park's major lakes. Group kayak, canoe and rabasca canoe activities are available upon reservation.
Period: From May 18 to September 3, 2007


Canoe-Camping and Kayak-Camping

There are 13 campsites for canoeists and kayakers on Lac Loïs. The many birds that frequent the area make the experience even more enjoyable. During the excursion, you can stop for a picnic on one of the magnificent sandy beaches.
Period: From May 18 to September 3, 2007






Fishing
Whether you're visiting for one day or several, you can go fishing on a number of the park's lakes. Tantalize brook trout in lakes Frontière, Vose, Perché and MacNamara. Northern pike and walleye anglers can try their luck at Lac Loïs, located at the Taschereau sector. Close to this vast body of water (1,363 hectares) is the Ojibway walk-in campground as well as 13 primitive camping areas along the shores. Canoe and sea kayak (solo, tandem or family) rentals are available at the Information Kiosk in this sector. Fishers who have their own boats enjoy easy access to the lake Lac Loïs.
Fishing packages with accommodations are available now.

New in 2008 : It is now possible to reserve your day fishing activity 4 months in advance. For example, if you want to fish on June 24, you should reserve on February 24. Online reservations and phone reservations start at 8:30 AM (1 800 665-6527). See Reservation Terms and Conditions and the 2008 Day Fishing brochure to find out when the different bodies of water open for fishing.
