Monts-Valin National Park

Monts-Valin National Park is a nature preserve in the Saguenay region featuring multiple peaks, pristine lakes, and dense forest coverage. The landscape combines mountain terrain with river valleys and accessible routes for different types of outdoor activities.

The Quebec government established this protected area in 1996 to preserve the natural resources of the mountain region. This decision helped ensure that the northern ecosystems would remain intact for the future.

The park serves as a space where visitors can observe wildlife that has lived in this landscape for generations. Local communities view it as an important refuge for the animals and plants that define this northern region.

The park offers hiking paths in summer and snow routes in winter, with options suitable for different skill levels. Visitors should prepare for changing weather and bring sturdy footwear and layers suitable for mountain conditions.

The park supports an uncommonly rich variety of plant and amphibian species for a northern mountain area. This biological diversity makes it a valuable area for scientific research and observation.
