Quebec's Saguenay Fjord E-mail

saguenay1

A true wilderness experience offering panoramic views of one of the few natural North American fjords. Edged with towering cliffs of 1000 feet, this 70 km voyage along the river Saguenay is a journey worth undertaking. This point-to-point trip begins at St. Rose du Nord, a picturesque village situated on the fjord's northern shore, and ends at Tadoussac, the site of the first trading post in the early 1600s. It is here that the Saguenay mixes with the arctic waters of the mighty St. Lawrence, yielding a nutrient-rich eco-system that supports four to five species of whales, including the much loved and endangered Beluga, Minke, Fin, saguenay3Humpback and even the gigantic Blue Whale. As we travel down the fjord, we'll encounter breath-taking views both ahead of us and behind us. The well-maintained and thoughtfully planned campsites located perioidically along the way, offer fresh water, tent platforms, and privies, basic comforts you're sure to appreciate at day's end. This is indeed a unique trip well worth the drive.
