Appalaches Regional Park, Regional park in Montmagny, Canada.
Appalaches Regional Park sits in Quebec's Chaudière-Appalaches region and encompasses dense forests, several lakes, and mountain ridges. The area is crossed by roughly 30 footbridges that link its extensive trail network.
The park received official recognition from Quebec's Commission de toponymie in 2004, confirming its status as a protected natural area. This designation formalized the preservation of a landscape that indigenous peoples had inhabited and shaped for centuries.
The name references the Appalachian mountain chain and honors the Wabanaki Confederacy peoples who lived here before European settlers arrived. Today, visitors experience this connection to the land through trails that wind respectfully through forests and around water features.
The park offers roughly 140 kilometers of trails suited for hiking, cycling, and winter sports at various difficulty levels. Accommodations range from basic camping spots to fully equipped cabins depending on your preference.
Grande Coulée Mountain stands at 853 meters and marks the highest point in the park, offering sweeping views across the diverse landscape of forests and waterways below. This vantage point reveals the park's full geographic variety in a single panoramic view.
