What Are Guided Outdoor Activities?

Have you ever wondered, during a walk in the forest, what kind of animal made a hole in the tree, what kind of flower was growing next to the trail or if the body of water you saw was a marsh or a pond? During guided outdoor activities, our nature educators are there to answer these questions and more!

Guided outdoor activities are an opportunity to get out, move around and discover local wildlife in the field - live - with our nature educators! Combine fun, sports and learning in activities such as guided hikes or snowshoe outings, introductions to fishing and guided kayak excursions! You will have fun even if you are a beginner.

GUEPE organizes many outdoor natural heritage interpretation activities throughout the year in various parks in the greater Montréal area, in Charlevoix and in the Eastern Townships. Join us to get some fresh air while learning to appreciate the region's natural sites from a whole new perspective!
