Canyon de la Vauréal, Natural canyon in L'Île-d'Anticosti, Canada.
The Vauréal Canyon stretches for three kilometers through the northern part of Anticosti Island, featuring walls that reach heights of 90 meters.
The Vauréal Canyon received its official name on October 4, 1984, through the Quebec Commission of Toponymy, connecting to French geographical heritage.
The canyon preserves geological formations and small caves that provide researchers with information about Quebec's natural development over centuries.
Visitors can access the canyon through a 7.4-kilometer intermediate trail, which takes approximately four hours to complete from the main parking area.
The Vauréal Falls, marking the beginning of the canyon, drops 76 meters, making it taller than Niagara Falls by nearly 20 meters.
