Description:

Come and experience the featured activity “Window on the Belugas”, which uses various technological means to immerse you in the fascinating world of belugas. Guaranteed to amaze! Note that the presence of belugas is not guaranteed during your period on the site.

The hour-long activity takes place at the observatory, at the top of the mountain - a 10-20 min ascent on a gravel path is required. Before or after your activity, don't forget to take the Putep 't-awt trail, a free 2 km discovery trail with interactive interpretation panels that will take you on an educational adventure about Wolastoqey culture and the territory.

Parking :

Use the Gros Cacouna Harbour - Kiskotuk Coastal Park ornithological site parking lot. Depending on your walking speed, it's a 35- to 45-minute walk from the parking lot to the observatory. If the 1.5km walk is too much for you, why not use our electric shuttle at the gift shop? See schedules, fares and where to take the shuttle.

Good to know :

Bring good walking shoes, outdoor clothing and a water bottle. There is no water on site. There are no toilets at the top of the mountain, but there is an ecological toilet at the foot of the mountain. Dogs are not allowed in the interpretation room (except for companion dogs), and eating and drinking are prohibited. The site is entirely non-smoking. For further information, please consult our frequently asked questions.

The legends of Wolastoqey oral tradition are stories that describe hundreds, even thousands of years of history. They reflect the bond between Wolastoqiyik and their territory.

Come and take part in this activity, which takes place in the Passereaux sector of Kiskotuk Coastal Park, in the Sqotek pavilion, which means “place of fire” in Wolastoqey latuwewakon. Designed by a Wolastoqey architect with respect for the environment, this infrastructure features a fireplace at its center. It features sculptures by a local artist that relate to the various legends told. Enhanced by an infusion during the break, this experience will enable you to learn more about this Nation and its uniquely rich and instructive stories.
