Dogstar cabin is our deepest wilderness immersion experience with a 20 minute hike in to the hilltop with an extraordinary view of the Quyon valley and nothing but wilderness for as far as the eye can see.
Our mission for the past ten years? protecting wilderness by sharing wilderness.
LeTerrain Wilderness Park — Off-Grid Dark Sky Sanctuary
Welcome to LeTerrain, a 400-acre private wilderness in La Pêche, just one hour from Ottawa — and a world away from modern life.
This land has been protected, lived on, and carefully stewarded for over 10 years. I’m your host, Ranger Steve, and I’ll be welcoming you to a place defined by scale, silence, and depth.
LeTerrain features:
400 acres of old-growth forest and wild terrain
65+ wetlands, ponds, and streams supporting rich biodiversity
Over 20 km of maintained trails for hiking, exploring, and quiet wandering
Some of the best panoramic views in the Gatineau Hills
Official Dark Sky Preserve — exceptional stargazing with zero light pollution
Totally off-grid (no power lines, no streetlights, no road noise)
Dog-friendly — well-behaved dogs are welcome
A small, intentional off-grid village of like-minded wilderness dwellers
One of LeTerrain’s mountains is encircled by ancient stone structures, the focus of ongoing research and guided walks. Guests can join optional tours exploring these enigmatic constructions, their placement in the landscape, and the larger history of the region.
This is not a resort.
This is not a selfie stop.
LeTerrain is for people who want to feel the land, walk real trails, hear wolves in the valley, watch firelight replace screens, and experience a night sky the way humans did for millennia.
Whether you’re here to camp, explore, stargaze, or simply disconnect, you’re stepping into a landscape that has been protected through sharing, with care and intention.
If you’re looking for true wilderness, deep quiet, and a stay that stays with you long after you leave — you’ve found it.

Gorgeous, serene 38 acres of pristine woodlands, trails and meadows. Our property is named after our large White German Shepard, don’t worry she’s friendly.
Enjoy the sounds and sights of nature. Take a stroll down our personal trails, or bring your four-wheelers/bikes and enjoy the 1000s of kilometres of trails that begin after our driveway.
Piles of rocks throughout the bush indicate that this land once was farmed. A creek runs through the property with a beaver pond. The land has a main trail that goes right through to the back of the property. The land is a mixed forest with maple, pine, hemlock, birch and cedar.
The land is rolling and flat with good walking trails. Great hiking, cross country skiing or biking trails. Only 50 minutes to Kanata, 30 minutes to Perth, Almonte or Carleton Place, and for downhill skiing only 30 minutes to Calabogie. Many lakes in the area for fishing, swimming and boating.
We look forward to having you stay with us,
happy camping,
Jacob and Andreya

Camping on Paul's property for the night was breathtaking. Being able to camp in a quiet, secluded area backing onto a beautiful creek was exactly what I needed.
Paul was super friendly and welcoming. He showed us where the site was and even offered the cabin for us to sleep in. Plenty of wood was provided.
I highly recommend this place - it's perfect!
I'm definitely going back again.

Neil has a great place 30 minutes away from Gatineau! U get plenty of privacy on his property. We've enjoyed the sound of the water crrek at night.

I camped here for the 6th time to do some fishing, I caught a baby Muskie, and some catfish. If you want to fish here make sure to use steel or heavy fluorocarbon leaders and have extra long pliers. Gerry was helpful and kind as per usual, access to the river was easy. I also saw a beaver, otters, muskrats, turtles, herons, and frogs.
