Grande Plée Bleue Tour for Newcomers

September 11, 2021 @ 12:00 PM - 5:00 PM
Free

*** NEW EVENT ***

 

Ladies and gentlemen, this may be your chance to find your Fiona or your Shrek! We are visiting for the first time ever, a peat bog in Beaumont. VEQ will provide the transportation to the Grande Plée Bleue for FREE. Once there, we will take an interpretive tour (2.5-3 hours long) guided by experts in the field. The trail is 3,4 kilometers on flat terrain so families can bring a trail stroller.

 

The visit is free and donations to the Conservation Society are encouraged.

 

 ***Registration is required!***  The maximum of people is 15, children included. 

 

It is recommended to bring the following:

  • Sunscreen and bug repellent
  • Hat, sunglasses and a water bottle
  • Binoculars
  • Good walking shoes (definitely do not recommend flip flops)
  • Your smile!
  • Snacks (it will be a long morning)
  • A picnic lunch? The estimated time of arrival in Québec City is around 1:00 PM, there is a gorgeous park across the street (Samuel-Holland Park) with picnic tables, small tables, and chairs. Perfect place to fuel up and continue enjoying your Saturday.

 

Since the boardwalk in the bog doesn’t permit a 2 meters’ distance between visitors the mask must be worn at all times.
