                                              Description

                                              The Bras-du-Nord Valley is a regional park with over 175 km of hiking trails and offers several outdoor activities (canoeing, kayaking, mountain biking, etc.).
                                              The main reception area is in the Shanahan sector. TrackZ all-terrain wheelchairs (3-wheel wheelchairs that are more stable on rough terrain) can be rented there.
                                              The park's accommodation options are not accessible. The “La Rivière” cottage is the only one without steps, but its interior layout presents certain obstacles for wheelchair users. See the listing for Camping Shanahan (partially accessible) in related activities.
