Morette Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

A beautiful waterfall, a few minutes walk from the nearest parking lot.
Do the 2.7km loop! It's worth it!
It's accessible even with young children, with a little help (especially if it has rained in the last few days).

Abri sous roche

Highlight • Other

People settled here under the rock shelter approximately 5,000 years ago. The excavation site is cordoned off and can only be viewed through the fence. Along the trail, there are signs explaining the people of that time.
