Where to practice an individual sport Saguenay—Lac-Saint-Jean

To get there, take the Route de la Montagne to the parking lot (the site is well indicated). Set in pine trees, the trail leads to various lookouts overlooking the Saguenay Fjord, the highest of which reaches 517 metres. It goes without saying that the view is simply extraordinary, and a small picnic area has been set up to allow you to take a break in this sublime setting. The nearest observation point is 15 minutes from the parking lot.

The municipal wharf area is highly frequented by visitors, a must see point during a trip to Sainte-Rose. The place includes parking, shops and fast food (here you will find traces of Pierre Richard's visit following the shooting of the film Le Bonheur de Pierre). From this point, three trails - which join three others - allow you to take a short walk in the forest. Observation points along the fjord are accessible from these trails and offer a breathtaking panoramic view.
