Such a great activity! Steve and Caro are great guides, they took their time to walk us through the rules and what the trail looks like, and we had a perfect time! And their dogs were such happy cuddlebugs! Couldn't have picked a better place for this activity! Thank you, Ferme L'Aventure!

Beautiful and very peaceful place if you are lucky enough to get there early in the morning as it could get very crowded later in the day. The lake is so serene, the fall colors in full bloom are amazing. This is a must visit for hikers, nature lovers and photographers.

A must to visit! Gatineau park is just beautiful. Close to Ottawa, with so many lakes including Pink lake (green), trails, wildlife, breathtaking views especially from Belvèdere where you can see as far as the Outaouais River. Good variety of restaurants (Chelsea) it does not matter the season of the year, each one is unique in its own way. In Autunm enjoy the colors is just magic!!! My favorite place in the Outaouais.

Always something for the children, be it face painting, interesting displays with a learning message which is fun for kids, or in winter it may be slides and snow sculptures for the entire family... Always worth a visit when stuff is going on. If nothing is on, then it is a great place to have a pic nic with views of parliament, Nepean point, Embassies, the Ottawa river or the close by Museum.

Friendly staff and nice runs. As an experienced skier you will probably quickly be a bit bored, but the area is really close to Ottawa.

Where history meets adventure! Chutes Coulonge Park is a logging interpretation site and outdoor adventure park. We offer a historical walk, scenic lookouts over the falls, Giant Canyon Ziplines, Treetop Obstacle Course and the Via Ferrata! This exciting activity is the only of its kind in the region and one of the few in Canada. Located in the Canyon of the Coulonge River, it consists of a climb/walk along the canyon’s rock face, using cables and anchor points to help you progress along the way. For the little ones we offer a splash pad, small rock climbing walls and a low-ropes obstacle course. Visit our museum, walk our trails or try our adrenaline pumping activities! Fun for the whole family!

We drove approx 2 hours to Chutes Coulonge. It was definitely worth the drive! The waterfall is wonderful, with a path and bridges that give you many different views of the falls and the log slide. Also discovered alot about logging: the process, the equipment and the gruelling labour. My daughter conquered her fears and ziplined across the canyon and climbed back up the cliff using a Via Ferrata course. ALL of the staff were wonderful -- friendly, knowledgeable and committed to safety. Special thanks to Matthew who helped my daughter rediscover her love of adventure. There is also an interesting obstacle course for smaller children, a splash pad, and a small, but informative logging museum. Already planning a return trip!
