Activity description
Enjoy the adventures of the Parc des Palissades de Charlevoix thanks to the via ferrata du Lynx and its course accessible to everyone from 10 years old!
In the heart of the Parc des Palissades de Charlevoix, less than 10 minutes from Saint-Siméon, you'll find the ideal mountain activities for a great day out with family or friends in Quebec. Isolated in the mountains, between forests, lakes and rivers, the Parc des Palissades offers a natural setting that will delight lovers of the great outdoors!
The via ferrata du Lynx is the easier of the two via ferrata available in summer in the Parc des Palissades. It is equipped with several rungs and landings to make the crossing easier. Access to the via ferrata of the Lynx is made after a 20-minute approach walk, with a passage through a belvedere offering a panoramic view of the Lac à Jean and the Black River. Then, once you reach the top, a natural terrace will allow you to once again enjoy a breathtaking view of the Parc des Palissades and the splendid Charlevoix countryside.
With a guide to accompany you, you can choose to continue your progress at the end of the via ferrata du Lynx: a double zip line, as well as a 200-metre high suspension bridge and a 70-metre high abseiling descent await you to give you the fullest of aerial sensations!
Alternatively, you can descend from the summit via a hiking trail.
For an even more intense experience, the via ferrata of the Lynx can also be done at nightfall on Friday and Saturday evenings: the illuminated course will offer you an unforgettable outing in Charlevoix!
