Laure-Conan Park
Essential nature stop and exceptional site to discover, this recreational tourism park offers an unforgettable experience in the heart of the Domaine Charlevoix.
In the early 90s, the Domaine Charlevoix’s estate consisted of the consolidation of land which until then had only been used for farming and forestry. The property, who had an acreage of over 20,000,000 square feet, was later developed into a full nature park by Dr. André Gilbert, from Quebec City. His goal was to allow the regional population and the tourist clientele of Charlevoix to benefit from the undeniable beauty of the site.
First, there were the development of trails running through the land from the plateau of the high cornices, all the way down to the river bank. Then, over the years, the resort has benefited from the construction of various French-style pavilions, one of which was erected near a small lake. The preservation of the ruins of an old mansion and the development of walking trails also add to the unrivaled charm of Domaine Charlevoix.
It’s your chance to discover this piece of heaven on Earth, which offers 8 km of trails in the midst of magical landscapes.
The developers of Domaine Charlevoix have had an overall plan of the park prepared, showing the various sectors and main activities proposed.
At this stage of the project, the park plans to offer various types of hikes, for pedestrians and cyclists, physical activity areas, walking trails as well as the enhancement of the lake, picnic areas and children’s play areas.
The developers engaged o transfer all of the park’s developments to a non-profit company whose shareholders will be the owners of villas in the Domaine who will ensure their management and sustainability.
