The best camping near Forestville

·

Serving a population of just over 3,000, Forestville isn't a major tourist stop along this stretch of Quebec's whale route, but it is worth a look. The village has restaurants and cafes, a supermarket, and a tourism office where you can rent bikes, fat bikes, and kayaks, as well as a beautiful beach prime for a dip. Attractions in town are few and far between, as most of what it offers is incredible natural beauty and outdoor diversions, but the La Petite Anglicane church is very pretty and has some information about the town history. Once you've seen it, head out of town to explore several hiking trails and parks in and around Forestville.

Since I was very young, I’ve spent my vacations in the Bas-du-Fleuve. It’s a place I know by heart—a peaceful spot along the river that’s been part of my life. Low-tide walks, trips out to the Îlets d’Amours, seafood feasts, salty sea air, and truly wow-level sunsets are among my fondest memories… and I hope this place can become part of yours too. 💛 Nestled on the St. Lawrence River, you’re just steps from nature: explore the scenic Les Sentiers de la Pistoloise trails or enjoy sunset strolls at the Quai de Trois-Pistoles, both about a mile away; relax with riverside hiking, cycling, and swimming at Camping Municipal De Trois Pistoles (~2 mi) or head to the sandy shores of Camping plage Trois-Pistoles (~5 mi) for beach fun; for a longer walk, the easy Trois-Pistoles Basque Coastal Path (~3 mi) offers lovely coastal views.

The best camping near Forestville guide

When to go

Forestville isn't really reliant on tourism, so you’ll find most services operating the same hours year-round (except the tourism office—call to check in advance if you plan to stop in). If you are in the area to go out and observe whales, the best times to do so are from May through October. You’ll find the town busiest in July and August, and are then advised to book any activities in advance of arrival.

Know before you go

  • You’ll need a fishing licence to cast a fly at any of the parks or rivers in Quebec. This can easily be purchased online. 
  • In the summer months, a ferry runs between Forestville and Rimouski across the St. Lawrence River. 
  • Getting around Forestville without a car will be difficult, so consider taking a road trip.
  • Don’t expect everyone you encounter to speak English (though most tourism operators will have at least a basic understanding if they aren't fluent). Have a translation app ready on your phone to help you out as needed.
