Regional Flag Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean is the only region in Québec that has its own flag since 1938. The colours represent different elements that define the region. The leafy green at the top represents the immensity of the forests; the golden yellow at the bottom, agriculture; the grey in the cross section, industry and commerce, and the bright red that links the sections represents the active and vigourous nature of the population.

The Véloroute des Bleuets is renowned for the quality of its infrastructure and the services offered around the Lake Saint-Jean. It is a mustsee destination for thousands of biking enthusiasts. More than 200 000 people–cycling and rollerblading enthusiasts, hikers, families, as well as different groups from schools, associations and corporations–ride on this bike path every summer. The Véloroute des Bleuets stems into three associated networks that follow the same quality standards as the main one.The Au fil des rivières network takes visitors across the boreal forest that links Albanel to Girardville. The Ville d’Alma network leads to the many services offered in the town’s center. Since 2012, the new Kénogami network, The Horst, links the Saguenay networks to the Lac-Saint-Jean’s. It goes through the towns of Métabetchouan-Lac-à-la-Croix and Hébertville, then takes you alongside the Saguenay River, in the Jonquière district (Saguenay). The Véloroute des Bleuets: experience a different kind of network!

National Parks The Saguenay―Lac-Saint-Jean’s national parks: be a part of the picture! The national parks in the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean region are members of the Parcs Québec network, whose mission is to protect and preserve the areas representing Quebec’s 43 natural regions. The 23 national parks are accessible to the public for educational and recreational purposes. Discover exceptional sites while doing outdoor activities. A must-see destination for wildlife-observation enthusiasts! Our parks: your best experience! Tour the national parks in the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean region and discover almost every element of Quebec’s ecosystems, from marine environments to the alpine tundra. Choose from many discovery activities, accompanied by our guides who have a passion for the riches of nature. The Parc national de la Pointe-Taillon is surrounded by a dense peat bog where the moose is king. Enjoy a delightfully restful moment, lulled by the waves of the Lac Saint-Jean. The Parc national des Monts-Valin overlooks a breathtaking panorama of majestic mountains and winding rivers. Get a mountain view from the top and, for a magic moment, feel like a giant. From the highest viewpoint of the Parc marin du Saguenay–SaintLaurent, watch a choreography of marine mammals and learn more about their fragile environment. The Parc national du Fjord-du-Saguenay takes you to the front rows of a breathtaking scene that overlooks the Fjord. Visitors must have a short-term or long-term pass to visit on the site. This pass is your contribution to the conservation and development of the parks. Be a part of the picture!

The Parc national de Fjord-du-Saguenay preserves and showcases the Fjord du Saguenay, a unique natural environment in Quebec. Baie-Éternité (Rivière-Éternité): 350-metre high rock walls that were sculpted by the glaciers stand erect on each side of the Fjord. Baie de Tadoussac (Tadoussac): the glaciers passage has created impressive marine terraces called dunes, and this area offers a major migratory crossroads for birds of prey. Baie Sainte-Marguerite (Sacré-Coeur): a favoured spot for beluga whale watching. Three Centre de décou-

verte et de services (discovery and services centres) highlight the unique features of the Fjord. Park wardens share their knowledge of this exceptional natural area and its treasures. A 100-km network of short and long hiking trails brings visitors to the front rows of a spectacular scene. Cruises, sailing, sea kayaking, rabaska, row-boat fishing or going on a zodiac expedition are but a few of the many ways to discover the Fjord. Our many accommodations make your stay a memorable one: we offer cabins, ready-to-camp lodging in rustic camp, shelters and camping sites. In winter, Baie-Éternité (Rivière-Éternité) becomes an ice-fishing village. A crosscountry skiing and snowshoeing trail connects RivièreÉternité to L’Anse-Saint-Jean (with a short stay in a refuge or rustic camp). The Baie-Sainte-Marguerite de Sacré-Coeur sector is also accessible with the “Attache ta tuque” package. Find out about our package deals! Open season: mid-May to end of October and midDecember to end of March. Schedule: access fee applicable.
