At the shore of the Saint Lawrence River in Nicolet, Quebec, is a boardwalk trail that offers spectacular views through the forest and across the marsh of the local Parc écomaritime de l'Anse-du-Port. The 710-metre trail leads to a 12.3-metre lookout tower, where, from the top, it looks like the boardwalk stretches endlessly through nature.

A new trail through the forest canopy of the Laurentians is supposed to open north of Montreal in the summer of 2022. First announced in April 2021, the Treetop Walk Laurentides will include a 1,250 metres elevated wooden path that culminates in a 40-metre winding tower with 360-degree views of the mountain range surrounding the town of Saint-Faustin-Lac-Carré.

This is not a story for anyone with a fear of heights. Sépaq has unveiled a brand new walkway and lookout at the end of a Quebec hiking trail that offers sweeping views of the surrounding landscape. The 350-metre wooden path allows visitors to walk along the steep edge of the Pic-de-la-Tête-de-Chien, a 575-meter summit in the Parc national des Monts-Valin.

Sépaq has enhanced the experience at several of its parks and reserves ahead of summer 2022. In addition to a new cliffside lookout in the Parc national des Monts-Valin, the society has also installed new rest areas with stunning views in the Gaspésie region's Réserve faunique de Matane.
