The Quebec Adventure Outdoor network invites you to discover a wide range of experiences in the heart of Quebec's great outdoors. Thanks to the network’s Quality-Safety and Ecotourism accredited members, you'll be able to enjoy a safe adventure and you’ll get to choose among hiking, climbing, sea kayaking and more! La Traversée de Charlevoix. Photo credit: Simon Diotte Amazing hikes well worth the trip Sentier des cimes Laurentides is a new attraction in the Laurentians near Mont-Tremblant. It consists of a trail built on a superb wooden structure, culminating in a 40-metre panoramic tower. With only a gentle slope that helps make it accessible to all, this trail offers breathtaking views. If you want a greater adventure, make the Traversée de Charlevoix your next challenge. This hike into the Charlevoix hinterland is sure to please advanced long-distance hikers in search of a change of scenery. Finally, if you'd like to immerse yourself in nature close to Montreal, head to Parc régional de la Forêt Ouareau: a true outdoor paradise in the Lanaudière region. There are also a number of lodges and camping sites for overnight stays. Peaks that promise a surge of adrenalin There's no shortage of options in Quebec when it comes to indulging your passion for mountains and climbing. With Parcours Aventures, you can practise via ferrata, notably at the Chute à Philomène in Gaspésie. Professional guides will take you to the top of the waterfall, where the view is outstanding, and then you'll finish your experience on a zipline. If you prefer rock climbing, here are two interesting options: explore the Montagne d'Argent with Liberté Nord-Sud, a favourite climbing spot near Mont-Tremblant, or take on the cliffs of the Bas-Saint-Laurent with Riki Bloc, which offers great challenges to suit all levels in a dream setting.

With Mer et monde Écotours in Bergeronnes, you'll explore the St. Lawrence estuary, a unique place to observe marine mammals. The breath of the whales, the salty air and the landscape dotted with granite and pine trees will transport you to a world where time seems to stand still. The Saguenay Fjord is an equally fabulous place to experience a memorable excursion. Whether you opt for Fjord en kayak from L'Anse-Saint-Jean or Ferme 5 Étoiles from Sacré-Cœur, you'll paddle gently through the natural riches of the fjord and encounter a wide variety of marine wildlife!
