Yamaska National Park

At the top end of the Appalachian Lowlands, Yamaska National Park’s sparse woodlands aren’t famous for their towering peaks nor their strenuous hikes—they’re most appreciated for their tranquil trails filled with endemic flora and fauna. Réservoir Choinière is where the action happens, with boating activities and wildlife observation in summer, and ice fishing, tube sliding, and cross-country skiing in winter. Camping in Yamaska National Park is available year-round, with a handful of specially outfitted winter cabins, along with almost 200 non-serviced sites for summer stays.
