Abitibi-Témiscamingue
Wilderness and rich Indigenous heritage
Abitibi-Témiscamingue is the accessible North, the gateway to the boreal forest and its vast spaces, home to 22,000 lakes and rivers. It is an island in the middle of a vegetal ocean, just far enough to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of big cities, allowing you to truly feel alive in a serene and generous natural setting.
It is also a unique culture shaped by the Anicinabek First Nation, a rich history, eclectic festivals, and artworks scattered throughout the region. Above all, Abitibi-Témiscamingue is about the sincere welcome of a proud people, happy to share their home. It is Quebec’s best-kept treasure!
