Description
Forestville: A Nature and Discovery Destination in the Heart of Côte-Nord
Nestled between the sea and the forest, Forestville is the perfect destination for lovers of wide-open spaces, authentic nature, and local discoveries. Whether you're on vacation, passing through Côte-Nord, or looking for a different kind of getaway, this town offers the perfect balance of tranquility, outdoor activities, and culture.
Along the shoreline, Baie Verte welcomes visitors with its sandy beaches, endless views of the sea, and some of the warmest waters along the coast. It's the perfect place to swim, stroll, unwind, or simply take in the stunning view of the St. Lawrence River. Peaceful and natural, this spot is a favorite for anyone wanting to disconnect and enjoy the beauty of the region. Just steps away, Baie-Verte Campground offers a great opportunity to extend your stay in nature.
Visitors appreciate the quality of the facilities and the warm welcome from the staff. It's an ideal option for those who want to experience Forestville in full outdoor mode. But the Forestville experience doesn't end at the beach. In town, the Petite Anglicane Museum takes you through the history of the region's builders and the first major hydroelectric dams in Québec. Nearby, you can also visit the arboriduct, a remarkable and unique relic from the area's forestry past. Forestville's hiking trails invite you to explore breathtaking viewpoints and diverse natural settings. During mushroom season, the variety found here is impressive—perfect for mycology enthusiasts.
Over at Baie Laval, sea kayaking and birdwatching lovers will be delighted by the rich habitats that host many nesting bird species. And for golf enthusiasts, Le Méandre offers a challenging course with spectacular views of the river and the Sault-aux-Cochons. Known for both its level of difficulty and its friendly atmosphere, it's a must for players of all levels.
Forestville invites you to discover this unique destination—where nature reigns, history comes to life, and activities abound.
