Oiseau Rock Trail

5K hiking trail (10K round trip) through the forest, with natural lookouts on the Ottawa River and interpretive panels on the history and culture of the Algonquin people. The trail leads to the summit of Oiseau Rock, one of the most important rock art sites in North America, 150 metres above the Great River. With a little luck, you may catch sight of a peregrine falcon, the Thunder Bird, venerated for thousands of years by the First Nations of Quebec. $12 entry fee per vehicle to be paid at the ZEC St-Patrice office.
