Parc Aylmer-Whittom
A forest park northwest of town with two lookout towers overlooking Père-Coquart Island and Sept-Îles Bay, suitable for light family hikes.
Parc Aylmer-Whittom lies on the west side of Route 138, about 7 km from the visitor centre. The park has several forest trails and two lookout towers. From the top you can see Sept-Îles Bay and Père-Coquart Island, and there is a miniature village for children. Entry is free and the trails are easy, making it suitable for a family half-day outing. Mosquitoes are plentiful in summer, so bring insect repellent. It can be combined with Lac des Rapides to the north on the same day.
