It was created in 1949 in order to preserve an exceptional territory for wildlife and to allow a better use of the territory. The venerable Father Le Clerk exclaimed at the end of the 16th century: "A country full of mountains, woods and rocks".

The forest is covered with black spruce and white birch stands, and typical tundra vegetation is found on the higher peaks. There are about 40 lakes and many streams and rivers. A truly harmonious nature within the Appalachian Mountains.
