Les Flots De La Berge - Camp

2. Les Flots De La Berge - Camp

76km from Pohénégamook · 1 site · Tent, RV
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.
