A Little History

Lac Kénogami is full of history. When the Europeans arrived here, they were at the centre of a communication network between the Saguenay, Lac Saint-Jean and James Bay. For over 250 years, fur-filled canoes navigated these waters. Destination: the trading posts of Tadoussac and Chicoutimi. Originally an Innu word, Kénogami means "long lake".
