A tiny city in the Outaouais region, Gracefield offers superb access to nature reserves and outdoor adventure.
Tiny Gracefield serves as the largest population centre in a pretty remote part of Quebec, meaning it offers amenities such as cafes and a small downtown with stores selling food and produce. What makes Gracefield most special are the wild spaces that surround it, with ample opportunities to get out and enjoy the pristine waterways and deeply forested lands. The area serves up a mix of both private and public campgrounds and parks that offer front and backcountry camping.
Though experienced campers might want to venture out to the Gracefield area in winter, the best time for enjoying all on offer is between May to October. May and June can be wet and still chilly, and your warmest weather will be in mid-July through to the end of August—though be wary of mosquitoes and blackflies. Pack extra-strength bug spray and you’ll be fine.
