History on water - Immersive cruise
From 2024-06-25 at 2024-09-29
TAKE TO THE SEA GENTLY
Sail peacefully where thousands of logs once piled up, and discover the history of the Saint-Maurice River in a whole new way. Aboard electrically-powered boats, let the river tell you about the changes it has undergone and the significant events it has witnessed.
The only one of its kind, Histoire sur l'eau is an immersive cruise where, through a soundtrack, the river comes to life to tell its story. Five themes will be explored: the paper industry, the log drive, the native presence, recreational activities and changes in the ecosystem.
A contemplative experience, rich in memories and emotions.
