Description

The park's activities revolve around the presence of a vast body of water (85 km2) dotted with islands on which camping sites have been set up and can be reached by canoe, kayak or paddleboard (allow up to 7 hours' navigation to get there).

There are no special accessibility features (reception pavilions, micro-huts, campsites) or activities (hiking, climbing, fishing, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing).
