Green Bay Beach and Trails

Forestville is home to Green Bay, a beautiful natural landscape on the St. Lawrence River that offers many fun activities, including campsites!

Green Bay is home to many rare species of aquatic birds and mushrooms, which you can spot on any of the five trails in the area. There are viewpoints on the trails for birdwatchers to get the best view possible. When you’re done your hike, relax on the beach, go for a swim, grab a kayak or canoe, and get out on the water. There is plenty of fish to catch, so feel free to grab your rod and get ready for a big catch!

This spot is sure to be worth your time!

La Petite Anglican Museum

La Petite Anglican used to be a Protestant chapel but is now a museum illustrating the history of Forestville.

The museum offers two other permanent exhibits in addition to some thematic exhibits. The first, located in the Rachel-St-Louis room, deals with the construction of the hydroelectric power stations in the area, as well as St-Maurice de Labrieville, a village built to house the workers of this huge construction site. The second permanent exhibition tells the story of the fire guards and shows the tools used by these workers in their fight against forest fires for over 50 years. The Desjardins Room is an exciting stop in the museum for those who want to discover the history of Forestville and its pioneers in pictures.

Artifacts dating back 3,500 years testify to the Amerindian presence on the territory. The museum offers guided tours on the reservation, including special tours for seniors and people with visual and/or hearing disabilities.

Rivière Laval Park

Camp and hike along the beautiful Laval river. This forested area offers plenty of nature to take in and is a favourite for birdwatchers, fishers and hunters. Here you can catch pike, indigenous brook trout, Atlantic salmon, sea trout, yellow perch, and lake char, and hunters can find migratory birds, moose, bear and partridge here.

There are many lakes and still bodies of water to swim in, and a small interpretation center allows visitors to view the skeletons of some of the local fauna.
