Gaspésie National Park, Provincial park in Gaspé Peninsula, Canada

This 802 square kilometer park encompasses two mountain ranges, the Chic-Chocs and McGerrigles, featuring Mont Jacques-Cartier at 1,270 meters above sea level.

The park's establishment in 1937 marked a pivotal conservation effort to protect the Gaspésie Caribou, Mont Albert, McGerrigle Mountains, and Rivière Sainte-Anne salmon populations.

Park naturalists conduct guided tours and scientific programs throughout the year, sharing knowledge about local geology, wildlife patterns, and mountain formations.

Three registration centers at Mont-Albert, Lac-Cascapédia, and Mont-Jacques-Cartier provide visitor services, equipment rentals, and access to different park sections.

The park contains the only caribou population found south of the Saint Lawrence River and experiences Quebec's highest precipitation levels at its mountain peaks.
