If you love to get away, give Val-Saint-Gilles a try! You’re sure to love this town on the shores of the Turgeon River, far removed from urban life. The surrounding pristine lakes and rivers teeming with fish, the vast forests filled with game – they’re all waiting for you! When you arrive, make your first stop at the historic fire warden’s house, preserved by the Northwest Forest Fire Prevention Society (Société de conservation du nord-ouest pour la prévention des incendies en forêt). While you’re here, be sure to check out the local attractions: the lookout, campground, municipal pier and network of multi-use paths will give you a new appreciation of nature and the outdoors.
