Île aux Lièvres, an incredible hiker’s paradise!Tapered at the ends, this island reminds some of a ship, while others consider it the world’s smallest continent! An impressive 13 kilometers in length, it cannot be fully explored in one day. Discover natural lookouts, explore deserted beaches edged in brier roses, find a seal dozing on the upper part of the beach… Both wild and inviting, Île aux Lièvres will enchant you.Ten kilometers across the water from Rivière du Loup, Île aux Lièvres is one of the best kept secrets of the estuary! Get there in just twenty minutes aboard a Duvetnor boat. The network of hiking trails is vast and diverse (45 km), with trails ranging in difficulty from novice to expert, the level of each clearly marked on the map you will receive upon landing. As a bonus, there are no dangerous animals, no stinging plants (no poison ivy, in particular), and far fewer mosquitoes than on the coast. Plus, refreshing ocean breezes, dwarf forests, escarpments, endless beaches, driftwood… And yes-scores of memories to be made (camera a must)!

If you love moody vibes and beautiful scenery, this park is for you. So many hikes to chose from, easy to difficult, low trails or high trails. My family and & I hiked the Cap a l’original and it was wonderful. You do need to pay attention to the low and high tides as this trails is on the shore of the beach most of the time and then you climb up a huge rock at some point towards the end. To know when you can start the trail due to the low or high tide, either check the website as stated on the park’s website or ask the staff. From my understanding, the tide is lower in the early morning hours and once in the afternoon. Need good shoes and water. Enjoy:)

The Canyon des Portes de l'Enfer (hell's gate canyon) in Saint-Narcisse-de-Rimouski begins with the Grand Sault waterfall and stretches nearly five miles between steep and narrow rock walls up to 90 metres high. A network of easy-to-intermediate hiking trails, from 1 to 14 kilometres, leads to stunning panoramic views and a 63-metre high suspended footbridge, the highest in Quebec. Experience the descent to hell's gate: 300 steps leading down to the Riviere Rimouski - and back up again!At the far end of the trail system is the Chaud waterfall, another 20-metre cascade.A restaurant, a one-star campground and a 8.5-Kilometre bike path are also available for visitors to this magnificent natural site.

We had a great time hiking these trails. The views from many of the "belvederes" (look-outs) were great. Walking the bridge gave nice views in both directions. We didn't find the stairs to be a challenge however some of the rest of the trails were somewhat steep and there is a LOT of up and down. We were both very happy to have had our hiking boots on. We had lunch down next to the river sitting on the many rocks. It's amazing how many Inukshuk's there are down there. Definitely recommended by us however those with young children may not want to do some of the trails. Perhaps to the bridge and back and not down to the river level via the stairs and likely not the entire loop trail. Obviously that would depend upon the age and hiking ability of your kids.
