Sugaring off...
Spring brings with it the sweet smells of boiling maple sap and the sugaring off season. A great activity for the whole family or among friends, satisfy your sweet tooth at one of the sugar shacks of the Outaouais region. Enjoy every bite of a typical Quebec meal from the early days and why not take a sleigh ride tour. Don’t leave the premises without loading up on locally made maple products to enjoy at home or share with guests. |

A newborn in the National Park family, the Parc national de Plaisance is a wonderful place for outdoor enthusiasts looking for a unique and unspoiled natural environment. |
