The best place I have ever been to view birds. I added over 20 birds to my life list here (I'm still pretty new at this) and I didn't have to wait hours to catch a glimpse of one. There were many specimens of each bird type and don't get me started on the thousands upon thousands of snow geese digging their entire heads and necks into the mud! It was an amazing sight to witness. Highly recommend this spot for bird lovers visiting Quebec City!
Great natural parc by the St Laurent river with observation points of migratory birds - ducks, geese, falcons and even black bears.
Excellent for kids and adults alike with free onsite parking with picnic areas, the central building has toilets but no cafe nor bar.
Awesome place to visit. Worth the detour. Best in mid-October to see thousands of migrating birds. Many nice easy and advanced trails. Did a GPS tracking activity with the kids and it was fun! I recommend! A++
We did two really nice walks with minor elevation changes. Outstanding views of 33,000 snow geese. Observed volunteers banding migratory song birds. Very nice two hours.
We have been there during our honeymoon in a wonderful stormy day when we were the only two person there! The place is wonderful and so peaceful.. if you are careful you can end up seeing some wildlife too..
I would get to Quebec in a sec just to be able to visit this place again!
