Saint-Jean-des-Piles

Saint-Jean-des-Piles extends along the Saint-Maurice River, featuring dense forests, lakes, and numerous outdoor recreational opportunities throughout its territory.

The municipality operated independently from 1897 until 2002, when it merged with six other sectors to form the expanded city of Shawinigan.

Residents maintain strong ties to outdoor traditions through activities such as snowmobiling, ice fishing, and cross-country skiing during winter months.

Visitors can select from multiple accommodation options, including cottages and chalets, with prices ranging between 200 and 600 Canadian dollars per night.

The sector provides direct access to Mauricie National Park, offering extensive trail networks for hiking, mountain biking, and wildlife observation.
