The Maritime Adventure Park offers a network of 35 km (20 mi.) of hiking trails along 17 km (11 mi.) of coastline, as well as 10 maritime observation sites with interpretive panels on various themes such as the last glaciation.
There are close to 24 km (15 mi.) of hiking trails distributed over four different islands. Mostly, these trails will take you along the sea, but occasionally they will lead you into the heart of the islands, into the woods, barrens and peat bogs.
Hikers and anglers will enjoy the pastoral atmosphere of the Port-Daniel River and marvel at its waterfalls, gorges and pits. With a bit of luck, you can follow animal tracks and observe them in their natural habitats.
From the heart of the village of Percé, the trails up Mt. Sainte-Anne and Mt. Blanc lead to spectacular views.
