	Discovering the Park

A Sea of Mountains

Enjoy an unforgettable getaway in this mountainous landscape made up, among other things, of Mont Chic-Chocs and Mont McGerrigle. Twenty-five peaks over 1000 metres high, featuring diversified vegetation and abundant wildlife, are your assurance of a total change of scenery.

Mont Albert, Simply Extraordinary!

Come see the park's glacial cirques, steep-walled valleys and wolds, including Mont Albert which features a unique ecosystem shaped by the harsh climate and the chemical composition of the soil. These conditions have contributed to the survival of rare plants, whose discovery is truly captivating.

I Love Hiking: Somewhat, Very Much, Passionately!

Make the most of this hiking paradise. Parc national de la Gaspésie has 140 km of hiking trails, 110 km of which are part of the Appalachian International Trail. The Ernest-Laforce trail is unique because you can reach two thirds of it by car. People of all ages can enjoy the view of the park's magnificent sea of mountains!

Gaspé Caribou

The herd of woodland caribou in Gaspésie is the only representative of the species south of the St. Lawrence, which explains its federal status as an endangered species. This cervid is especially threatened by changes to its habitat, notably outside the park. Conserving the caribou in Gaspésie is important for two reasons. This genetically distinct population generates a great deal of scientific interest, and economically, the woodland caribou attracts many tourists to the summits. Parc national de la Gaspésie offers a wide range of interpretation activities spotlighting this noble creature, such as an exhibition about the Mont-Jacques-Cartier sector and caribou watching in the summer.

Combining Comfort and Nature

Take advantage of the pleasures of the great outdoors while enjoying all the comforts of a hotel. Gîte du Mont-Albert is renowned for its hospitality, refined cuisine and numerous activities. All types of accommodations, including cabins, huts and campgrounds, are available in the park.
