Description
Note that the “Tropical Humid Forest” and “The Gulf of St. Lawrence” ecosystems have a walkway offering visitors an overview of them while allowing them to access the mezzanine.
However, it is not accessible to people in wheelchairs and remains difficult to access for parents carrying a stroller. However, a newly fitted elevator allows people with reduced mobility to access the mezzanine from where it is also possible to obtain an overview of these two ecosystems. A mobile application is available for the visit, there is no longer an audio guide.
