Activity description

Discover the Hautes-Gorges-de-la-Rivière-Malbaie National Park in Charlevoix on a boat cruise with a park ranger!

Aboard the Menaud, a bateau-mouche with a covered pontoon, you will sail on the Malbaie River in the heart of the Hautes-Gorges-de-la-Rivière-Malbaie National Park. Located in the Charlevoix region, between the Saguenay Lac Saint-Jean and Quebec City regions, this national park offers sumptuous landscapes that you will be delighted to discover during this cruise on the Malbaie River!

While listening to the park warden share his knowledge of the environment of this little corner of natural paradise, you will enjoy a peaceful boat ride between valleys cut deeply into high mountains, with significant differences in altitude offering impressive panoramas. The singular course of the Malbaie River and its high gorges make this Quebec river cruise unique!

Daily access to the Hautes-Gorges-de-la-Rivière-Malbaie National Park is included in the price of the activity, so don't hesitate to maximize your visit! Only 30 minutes from La Malbaie and less than an hour from Baie-Saint-Paul, the park offers several hiking trails at altitude or along the banks of the Malbaie River. So kill two birds with one stone and take advantage of this unmissable opportunity!

If you are visiting the Charlevoix region of Quebec and want to spend an unforgettable day outdoors, take a boat cruise on the Malbaie River!

Beauté, splendeurs et paysage spectaculaire et plus grand que nature. Activité des plus plaisantes et instructives pour les petits comme les grands. Mention spéciale à notre guide Anne qui a ponctué le tout de faits saillants et anecdotes aussi intéressantes que pertinentes.
