1. A unique guided hike
Station Uapishka / Courtoisie
Do you know the Uapishka mountains, also called the Groulx mountains? With more than thirty peaks over 1,000 meters spread over 5,000 square kilometres, it is now possible to go on a guided hiking adventure in the heart of the boreal forest in a safe manner thanks to Aventure Uapishka. The expedition includes 5 very interesting and relevant training courses such as how to develop your autonomy, map and compass orientation, a training program and an outdoor nutrition guide to be ready for this great outdoor adventure.

Located at the water’s edge in Portneuf-sur-Mer, the O’Rivs Pub promises to fill your stomach with its “fisherman’s pub” concept. We go there especially to taste the famous “smash burger”, made of three meatballs with elk and ground beef, cheddar cheese, fried onions, all on a brioche bun. Guaranteed success, whatever your appetite. The menu also features poutines, fish and chips, Côte-Nord flavored rolls and appetizers to share.
