Spend a few hours or even a whole day ice fishing at Jacques-Cartier National Park, a great way to have fun with the whole family in winter!
During the weekend or on holiday this winter, there is nothing like an ice fishing session at Jacques-Cartier National Park to spend quality time with your loved ones. Tours Québec opens its doors to give you access to its frozen lakes filled with speckled and rainbow trout. It is the ice fishing site near Quebec City you don't want to miss, especially as it is accessible in only 30 minutes by car!
In the peace of the forest at Stoneham-et-Tewkesbury, you can decide how much time you want to spend ice fishing. Your catch cannot be returned to the water, but if you wish you can cook it on site or take it home with you (for an extra charge). There are teepees on site if you want to take a short break, and during your fishing session at Jacques-Cartier National Park, you can even watch the departure of the dog sledding excursions!
