    Camping Baie des Campucins

    13 Ağustos 2024, Kanada ⋅ ☁️ 61 °F

    A goal was to camp on the water/beach and we certainly found one!!! We are steps from the water, if only the fog would clear.

    This is the opposite of the last campground. Electric only, lots of fishermen, quiet, a hike to the bathroom, narrow road down a hill to get here and Angus had to back in, which he did with ease.

    The last six pictures are from the morning of the 14th. The fog cleared for a few minutes and we caught a glimpse of the coastline. Gorgeous spot to camp!    Okumaya devam et

    Parc National de la Gaspésie

    14 Ağustos 2024, Kanada ⋅ ☁️ 64 °F

    We learned that the Parc National de la Gaspésie was created in 1937 to preserve the mountain caribou, the Sainte-Anne River and the Gaspesian mountains.

    It was a gorgeous drive from the coast into the mountains. It was completely different and the sun came out as we headed up in elevation away from the foggy coast.

    We decided at the visitor center to take on Mont Albert, the premier and double black diamond rated hike. Off we go!    Okumaya devam et

    Gaspé Peninsula Drive

    15 Ağustos 2024, Kanada ⋅ ☀️ 63 °F

    We drove up the peninsula more today passing lots of pretty towns nestled along the way. Foggy, but beautiful nonetheless.

    One interesting thing is that many houses have driveways that wrap around the house. Also, most houses have flower pots on the front porch and if they are flying a flag, it’s the Québec flag, not the Canadian flag.

    Since leaving Québec City we have come across very few English speakers and even fewer US license plates.    Okumaya devam et

    Forillon National Park #1 - Visitor Cen.

    16 Ağustos 2024, Kanada ⋅ ☀️ 66 °F

    Hit the end peninsula this morning at the Parc National Forillon. Figured out that this is a Canadian national park whereas the others we have visited are Québec National Parks.

    Amazing visitor center with a stunning 25 minute video in English or French to enjoy before entering. Highly recommended!

    Also learned that the thick red lines/sections on the peninsula are blocked off to protect the animals. The small section above Cap-Bon-Ami is to protect the seals, the section from Cap-Bon-Ami all the way down to the Cap-Gaspé is for the black bears.

    Cost to enter: $17.50 CAD (kids 17 and under are free in these parks as well, yeah!)    Okumaya devam et

    Forillon #2 - Mont-Saint-Alban

    16 Ağustos 2024, Gulf of Saint Lawrence ⋅ ☀️ 68 °F

    We decided to drive to the south entrance to begin our hike up to Mont-Saint-Alban from the Grande-Grave parking area. In total it was about 2.3km to the top (including our hike from where we parked) and it felt a lot like climbing Mount Cardigan, our home mountain in NH.

    Québec or Canada national park, both have high quality signs to show the route. It’s nice to see how far you have climbed and how far you have to go, especially when hiking with children.    Okumaya devam et

    Forillon #4 - Hike 2!

    16 Ağustos 2024, Kanada ⋅ ☀️ 66 °F

    Why stop at one 4.6km hike for the day?!? Not us! We trudged on to the Land’s End called Cap-Gaspé.

    On the way out we took the Sentier Les Graves, 4km that wound along the coast and up onto the plateau before dipping down to the lighthouse that marks the land’s end.

    To return to the truck we took the more direct, but more crowded and less isolated Route de Gravier for 3.2kms.

    To say our legs were tired is an understatement! To the beach we go to soothe our muscles.    Okumaya devam et

    Forillon #5 - SIA / IAT

    16 Ağustos 2024, Kanada ⋅ ☀️ 66 °F

    We have been seeing these signs with SIA / IAT and finally figured it out.

    Sentier Internacional des Appalaches /
    International Appalachian Trail

    This trail is connected to Mount Katahdin in Maine, the end of the Appalachian Trail, and runs for 1,000km to end here at Cap-Gaspé.

    You can also read that France named it the first Grande Randonnée trail in North America. The last 650km are this type of trail and “this accreditation certifies the high standards of quality and promotes the sustainability of this trail.”    Okumaya devam et

    Camping Griffon Night 2

    16 Ağustos 2024, Kanada ⋅ ☀️ 68 °F

    Showers! .25/75 seconds, $1/5 min. Cheaper than our last campground that was $2/5min(only accepted dollar coins aka Loonies). Loving the shower curtain. 🐟 🐠

    Almost forgot to include a few pictures of this campsite. It’s a small campground and we are so glad we didn’t settle for any of the other ones nearby. They are all inland and have the campers stacked side by side in open fields. This has trees and is much more secluded. Plus, it has the beach access, pull through sites and full hook ups. Feeling spoiled!

    The hostess here gave us top notch advice about visiting the park, too. We certainly had a solid plan going into the day and didn’t need to ask for help at the visitor center which saved us time.

    Walking around the campground after dark it’s amazing to see all of the campfires going. Probably 95% of sites have a fire and the laughs and conversations in French are so fun to observe.

    *Dinner picture is from last night’s taco extravaganza, 😋 🌮

    Watching Toy Story 2 to finish the day. We are exhausted! 🥱    Okumaya devam et

    Haulte Municipale Barachois

    17 Ağustos 2024, Kanada ⋅ ☁️ 77 °F

    Québec, along the Gaspé Peninsula at least, has not disappointed with the municipal rest areas. Every single town on the coast has one complete with a stunning view, picnic tables, informational signs, usually a bathroom and a structure for shade. People stop all the time at these for a quick break or a full lunch and we’ve noticed the locals always break out the table cloths and have a fancy feeling picnic on their journey. Québec does this so well! Definitely encourages people to get out and wander for the day.Okumaya devam et

    Hommard!! 🦞

    17 Ağustos 2024, Kanada ⋅ ☁️ 77 °F

    Angus was craving some seafood after passing by numerous fishing towns and seeing stacks of lobster traps. We found a nice restaurant by the sea and ordered a lobster salad, fish and chips and a lobster club sandwich (Sarah mixed this up, was supposed to get a lobster roll, but ended up with lobster and 🥓 🥬 🍅 instead and loved the change! Fancy local dinner for us!Okumaya devam et
