Last summer, my trip to Quebec's North Shore, along Route 138, was an unforgettable experience. However, my stays in the heart of the Zec Matimek, in the Sept-Îles region, and the ZecTrinité, in Baie-Trinité, were truly the most memorable of my trip.
Discovering the Zec Matimek
Leaving with friends, we were instantly impressed by the immensity of the Zec Matimek. Its vast forests and lakes provided us with an ideal playground for our outdoor activities.
We were fortunate enough to stay in the new rental pods located at the Hall River, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in nature while enjoying comfortable accommodations.
One of our memorable expeditions in the Zec was a boat exploration to discover the hidden wonders of this vast territory.
Relaxing at the Zec Trinité
Beyond the breathtaking scenery, the simple moments shared with my friends made this trip so special. Whether it's paddling together at sunrise or sharing laughter around a campfire under a starry sky, these memories will stay with me forever.
My road trip on the North Shore was much more than just an adventure. It was a total immersion in the beauty and diversity of our beautiful province. In the Zec Matimek and the Zec Trinité, I found a real connection with nature and with those who shared this adventure with me.
