Description

The Uapishka (Groulx) mountain range includes about 30 tops over 1,000 metres high. It is the sixth highest mountain range and the third largest in terms of alpine area in Quebec. It is actually one of the rare mountain ranges of this size in Quebec to remain a wild, untouched area!

From September to June, a fine layer of snow gracefully caps the 30 or so tops of the mountain range. This is why the Innu people call it Uapishka, meaning “rocky summit always covered in snow.”

Mont Provencher is the perfect access trail to cross the Uapishka (Groulx) Mountains. Once at the top, you will be treated to a magnificent view of the eastern part of the Manicouagan Crater Lake and René-Levasseur Island.
