Best place for hiking

Kush Kawale

Deep dive into the nature and wildlife.

Tom

Aug 2013 My wife and traveled across Canada and Percé was part of our trip. I was here more than twenty years ago and told myself that I would come back.Back then I missed touring the area around the rock.After Percé we went around the peninsula and head east to Quebec City.The area here is very unique with many nice views to see.

Ben Van Duppen

Nice. Love the diving Gannets!

Israa Hilles

Watching the Gannets was very much fun, the hiking there was amazing, make sure to spend all your day there????

Camille Theveniau

Very nice walk around the island. You can also take a look at the super cute old houses and see birds colony from the island. Quite impressive!

Ben

Before you purchase tickets to the park, beware that they will not refund your tickets even if the ferry is not available. We purchased our tickets in advance as was recommended but were disappointed to find that on the day of our visit all the ferries were cancelled due to inclement weather. Fair enough, but to our surprise SEPAQ refused to refund our tickets under any circumstances — even though they are only valid for one day and it is impossible for us to get to the island! It's basically a scam. I'm sure the island is beautiful and I was really looking forward to seeing the gannet colony but this is not right. EDIT: Fortunately, we were able to go back the day after and they let us use our tickets from the previous day. But if we had not been able to go we would have been out 40$. Even though everything worked out in the end I still don't think it's a proper business practice. I would otherwise give a 5 star rating for the wonderful experience but taking this into account it gets 4 stars.

Vincent Berardinucci

Simply amazing

Maryse Cloutier

(Translated) Welcoming and smiling staff. Very clean place, the trails are well maintained. The view is magnificent and the crazy side of Northern Gannet is to have you absolutely. The cruise is great too. (Original) Staff accueillant et souriant. Endroit très propre, les sentiers sont bien entretenu. La vue est magnifique et côté fou de Bassan c'est t'avoir absolument. La croisière est très bien aussi.

Simon Dadouche

Great adventure

Raphael Morin

A must for someone visiting Percé!

Nicolas Lampron

(Translated) Beautiful Park! Very well preserved place and beautiful hikes possible. The landscapes seen from the Island are splendid! (Original) Beau Parc! Endroit très bien préservé et de belles randonnées possibles. Les paysages vus de l'Ile sont splendides!

Rebekah Hwang

I did the "coloniales" trail. The trail was easy and not that memorable. There were 2 washroom pit stops on the way. Once you get to the top, you're greeted by a sea of birds.

Subhasis Raha

Wow

Edi Patricia Nava Quintero

It's a place when you can walk and see the gannet and seals. There isn't electricity, potable water. You can find a restaurant, but in June 2021 it's still close due restrictions. You can buy sandwich and cakes. It's expensive, so I recommend to buy some snacks or sandwich in Perce. The bathrooms are ecologic, no water to clean your hands only hand sanitizer. I recommend to go early and stay there around 2 or 4 hours. The schedule of the boat to return is: 12:30 pm, 2:30pm, 4:00pm, and 5:00 pm.

Robert-François Trudeau

Very nice ...1 item off my bucket list!

Maude Poitras

Cute little town. Lots of small shops and restaurants. Great trails in the outskirts of the town to see different sights. Sadly the day we were there was a thick fog so we couldn't see very far. We couldn't see the Roche Perce. Also, they are several public bathrooms in the town.

Jacques Montminy

A must see

L'Univers du Reiki AnniePoirier

(Translated) Beautiful hike on the island. Bring good shoes. A little difficult to access for strollers and small children. You have to plan a good 45 min walking speed to get to the Colony by the small path. I recommend taking the 1pm boat to fully enjoy the island. (Original) Belle rando sur l'ile. Apportez vous de bon soulier. Un peu difficile d'accès pour les poussettes et petits enfants. Faut prévoir un bon 45 min bonne vitesse de marche pour se rendre à la Colonie par le petit sentier. Je recommande de prendre le bateau de 13h pour profiter pleinement de l'ile.

Maxime Soulier

(Translated) It's really worth going around Bonaventure Island by boat. For the smartest, pay for the purchase of the entrances to the park before the boat trip, it avoids the line to the arrival on the island because it corks a little! Possibility to be lent trolleys for children or baby carriers! And finally 4 paths so the shortest is about 45 minutes to go (to the colonies) and ditto for the return, low to moderate elevation and some panels as the course to manage the potential impatience of the youngest, well done . And the small bar once arrived at the gannets is good because no drinking water on the island! (Original) Vraiment ça vaut le coup de faire le tour de l’île Bonaventure en bateau. Pour les plus malins, s’acquitter de l’achat des entrées du parc avant le départ en bateau, ça évite la ligne à l’arrivé sur l’île car ça bouchonne un peu! Possibilité de se faire prêter des chariots pour enfants ou porte-bébé! Et enfin 4 chemins donc le plus court fait environ 45 minutes aller (jusqu’aux colonies) et idem pour le retour, dénivelé faible a modéré et quelques panneaux au fur et à mesure du parcours pour gérer la potentielle impatience des plus jeunes, bien fait. Et la petite buvette une fois arrivée aux fous de Bassan est bien appréciable car pas d’eau potable sur l’île!

dor alexandr

(Translated) A large park is located on the island. You can only get to the park by a pleasure boat, tickets can be purchased on the shore of the town, tickets are sold immediately and on the way back from the island. Pleasure boats leave from the pier to the island, the road to the island by boat is about fifteen minutes. On arrival on the island there are souvenir shops, museums and toilets. But the most interesting thing awaits you ahead, in fact, for the sake of which everyone visits this park. Walking through the park along the paths, among the local fauna, you find yourself on the other side of the island, where seabirds nest, part of the coast is intended for visitors to the park and is fenced off from bird nesting sites. Autumn is a beautiful sight, you will be delighted with what you see. Half an hour before the park closes, the park employee will ask you to leave the shore with the birds and head to the pier to catch the last boat, the road through the park is half an hour or more. From the pier you will be picked up by pleasure boat to your place of departure. (Original) Большой парк расположен на острове. Попасть на территорию парка можно только на прогулочном катере, билеты можно приобрести на берегу городка, билеты продаются сразу и на обратный путь с острова. Прогулочные катера отправляются с пирса на остров, дорога до острова на катере составляет примерно минут пятнадцать. На территории острова по прибытию находятся сувенирные магазины, музеи и можно посетить туалеты. Но самое интересное вас ожидает впереди, собственно ради чего все и посещают этот парк. Пройдя по территории парка по тропам, среди местной фауны, вы попадаете на другой берег острова, где гнездятся морские птицы, часть побережья предназначена для посетителей парка и огорожена от мест гнездования птиц. Осень красивое зрелище, вы останетесь в восторге от увиденного. За полчаса до закрытия парка, вас попросит работник парка, покинуть берег с птицами и направляться к пирсу, чтобы успеть на последний катер, дорога по территории парка состовляет от полчаса и более. С пирса вас забирают на прогулочном катере на место вашей отправки.

Mireille JD

I've never seen so many gannets !! Amazing !!

Jean-Francois Richard

Beautiful

Fadi Wehbe

great walks and views in 4 different trails, + seeing the gannets is a big asset, Rocher Percé is nice too. $42 for the boat ride per adult, $20 per kid. $9 per adult for the park, free if < 18.

Xiu Wu

Ocean, grass rocks and birds.

Guillaume-Martin Ratté

You can't miss out on that if you are anywhere near Gaspesie....

Carlo Ricchiardi

(Translated) in spite of the ease of access and the very small size, one of the most beautiful parks I have visited in my life ... The colony of gannets (the second largest in the world) would already be worth the trip, seeing literally dozens of whales from Sentier du Roi was exhilarating. and then the other birds, the seals ... in short, a show. I recommend the cruise around the island before docking, it is worth the 35 CAD it costs ... (Original) a dispetto della facilità di accesso e delle dimensioni, molto piccole, uno dei parchi più belli che abbia visitato in vita mia... La colonia di sule (la seconda al mondo per grandezza) varrebbe già il viaggio, vedere letteralmente decine di balene dal Sentier du Roi è stato esaltante. e poi gli altri uccelli, le foche... insomma uno spettacolo. Consiglio la crociera intorno all'isola prima di attraccare, vale i 35 CAD che costa...

Janice Melanson

So worth the trip.

Irving Ortiz

(Translated) Nice place to visit. Bring your lunch. The food at the snack bar is not good. there are toilets and other services. (Original) Belle place a visiter. Apportez votre lunch. La bouffe du casse-croute n'est pas bonne. il y a des toilettes et d'autres services.

Alex Cournoyer

(Translated) The largest colony of Northern Gannets in the world, your eyesight, hearing and smell will be solicited. $ 40 / p for the boat and $ 9 / p for the right of access. The SEPAQ card is validated for access. No drinking water on the island. (Original) La plus grande colonie de fous de Bassan au monde.Votre vue, votre ouïe et vote odorat seront sollicités. $40/p pour le bateau et $9/p pour le droit d'accès. La carte de la SEPAQ est validé pour l'accès. Pas d'eau potable sur l'île.

AndreA

Ahh unbelievable place a must visit

felix corriveau

Impressing!

Pavlo Kalyta

Make sure you spare a full day for the trip to the Bonaventure Island. The place is a gem! Take the morning boat, as you need 4-5 hours on the island to truly enjoy it.

Keerthi Reddy

Updated : Last ferry leaves at 5 pm from the island. If you want to explore the whole island then it's recommended to catch the first ferry.

Neeka Sabri

This place is a piece of heaven

Jordan Dion-Gilbert

(Translated) Very nice place to see Percé and the gannets. Several km of hiking to go (Original) Très belle endroit pour voir Percé et les fous de Bassan. Plusieurs km de randonnée a parcourir

Erazem Dolžan

The gannet colonies on the island are absolutely amazing. It is something that must be seen to be believed.

Joshua Dunning

Beautiful place

Simon Thiboutôt

Very nice hike, not too hard, not too long. You got the chance to see wildlife as well which is pretty unique. Well see the Fou the bassan colony and some harbor seal it was pretty nice. The view is very nice too. I highly recommend this if you are passing by. There is some historic information about the former people who lived there back in the days.

Eric Guigue

You must visit the island at least once !

Christian Saranec

(Translated) I recommend. We took the 10am boat and left with the 2pm boat. Last boat at 4 p.m. Unfortunately one of the trails was closed. The outward journey lasting nearly 1 hour allows you to go around the pierced rock and around the island. Going around the island, we discover seals and gannets. Northern gannets that we discover very close on the island. (Original) Je recommande. On a pris le bateau de 10h et on est reparti avec celui de 14h. Dernier bateau à 16h. Malheureusement un des sentiers était fermé. Le trajet aller durant près de 1 heure permet faire le tour du rocher percé et le tour de l'île. En faisant le tour de l'ile, on découvre phoques et fous de bassan. Fous de bassan que l'on découvre de très proche sur l île.

Simon Durocher

Wow, this island is incredible. It is very worth visiting this prestigious parc. The peak of surprises is the other side of the island with the birds.

Antonio Pistore

(Translated) The area that includes the extreme tip of the Gaspésie peninsula is a combination of rare charm and beauty. Beautiful landscapes, nature full of close encounters with the large colony of gannets, gray seals and many other birds. The presence of "puffins" the puffins is also reported, but we have not seen them. We only spent a day and a half on our traveling trip. I think these places deserve a thorough visit for at least a week ... (Original) E' un insieme di rara suggestione e bellezza la zona che comprende la punta estrema della penisola di Gaspésie. Paesaggi splendidi, natura ricca di incontri ravvicinati con la grande colonia di sule, le foche grigie e tantissimi altri uccelli. E' segnalata la presenza anche dei "puffins" le pulcinelle di mare, ma non le abbiamo viste. Ci siamo stai solo un giorno e mezzo durante il nostro viaggio itinerante. Credo che questi luoghi meritino una visita accurata almeno di una settimana...

Elvis Wu

Good place for hiking and observing wild life.

Tom Raynal

(Translated) Nice in good weather, classic trail quite simple (colonies). The boat makes us visit the rock and the island with hundreds of birds !! Unbelievable. On-site guide to explain the history and nature of these birds (Original) Sympa par beau temps, sentier classique assez simple (colonies). Le bateau nous fait visiter le rocher et l'île avec des centaines d'oiseaux !! Incroyable. Guide sur place pour nous expliquer l'histoire et la nature de ces oiseaux

Francis Grenier

(Translated) Superb unmissable place to visit during your visit to Percé. The boat crosses every hour and the last leaves the island at 5:00 p.m. If you want to go see the Northern Gannet colony on the island, THE thing to do in my opinion, plan to cross in the morning since the walk is 45 minutes to the colony. You won't be in a hurry to come back and can have lunch there. Note: plan a fee per person for the boat and then an additional amount per person on the island to access the park. The total price is still worth the cost! (Original) Superbe endroit incontournable à visiter lors de votre passage à Percé. Le bateau traverse aux heures et le dernier quitte l'île à 17h00. Si vous souhaitez aller voir la colonie de Fous de Bassan sur l'île, LA chose à faire selon moi, prévoyez de traverser le matin puisque la marche est de 45 minutes jusqu'à la colonie. Vous ne serez donc pas pressé de revenir et pourrez luncher sur place. Note : prévoyez un frais par personne pour le bateau puis un montant additionnel par personne rensu sur l'île pour accéder au parc. Le prix total vaut tout de même le coût !

rath khan

Amazing place

Steven McGivern

Best Quebec experience!

Ella Beaini

An absolute must do. It's be putautiful and immersive.

Olivier Zyngier

Beautiful setting. Lots of birds, gannetts, cormorans, etc. Short cruise to get there (i recommend tbe one that goes around the island. Once on the island, several hikes available, none too strenous. The chemin du roi gets you very close to the birds. Plan on soe2ndinf at least 3 to 4 hours on the island.

Georgin Varghese

Great experience watching the migrating birds nest around the island.

JoAnn McDonald

Amazing place!

Emmanuel CINÇON

(Translated) Absolutely unbelievable. To see and do. Unmissable excursion to Gaspésie. (Original) Absolument incroyable. À voir et à faire. Incontournable excursion de Gaspésie.

Maurizio Covatta

Fun hike to the Fou de Bassan via le Colonie - one hour long

Elise Dosnon

(Translated) A magnificent island to visit! Superb vegetation, incredible views, and the huge colony of gannets is impressive (Original) Une magnifique île à visiter ! Superbe végétation, points de vue incroyables, et l'immense colonie de fous de bassan est impressionnante

Philippe Marseille

(Translated) The cruise is fine. Note that access to the park is a separate price from the boat. The cruise lasts approximately 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes. (Original) La croisière est très bien. Notez que l'accès au parc est un tarif séparé du bateau. La croisière dure environ 1h-1h30.

Zu Qiang

so beautiful and so peaceful

Robert Wolf

Take the boat tour at 9:00am and get off the island, hike it and catch the 2:00pm boat back. Bring a backpack with water, food and toilet paper.

Amandine B.

(Translated) It was wonderful ! Between the price of the boat to go to the island and the entrance fee to the park, it quickly becomes quite expensive, but my God it's worth doing. It is truly a privileged and unique moment to be able to admire these colonies of Northern Gannets (beware of people sensitive to bad smells). It is an essential stage of a tour of the Gaspé. (Original) C'était magnifique ! Entre le prix du bateau pour aller sur l'île et le droit d'entrée dans le parc, ça devient vite assez dispendieux, mais mon Dieu que ça vaut la peine de le faire. C'est vraiment un moment privilégié et unique de pouvoir admirer ces colonies de Fous de Bassan (attention aux personnes sensibles aux mauvaises odeurs). C'est une étape incontournable d'un tour de la Gaspésie.

Zankhana Patel

The Journey to the Bonaventure Island is Worth traveling. The amazing sea and you can see the island from all directions through the cruise.

Evgeny Rachitsky

Amazing island

Katya Planets

This amazing place you should visit at least once in your life!

Jean Pierre Vaillancourt

(Translated) Easy hiking trails (no poles) - Incredible privilege of having access just a few feet from the northern gannet nesting areas. Also observation of cormorants and some seals (Original) Sentiers pédestres faciles (sans bâtons)- Privilège incroyable d’avoir accès à quelques pieds des zones de nidifications de fous de bassan. Observation aussi de cormorans et quelques phoques

Sajid Hussain

It was a clear sunny day. The hike was great. Birds and seals were everywhere on the rocks.

Alexandre Gagnon

Absolutely gorgeous!

Didier Levesque

Really nice natural park. You can walk and watch the birds!

Guy Roy

Nice place to visit if you like bird watching and walking. Plenty of both.

Abhi

Skip the visit and hike. Not as great as publicized. Much better places around gaspe to spend a day

Bryan Cngan

The island has only one access which you need to ride the boat which about $40 each. Takes about 45 mins one way. If you wanna do the entire tour of the island you need about the whole day. Opened around 10 i think and last boat will be 4pm. Don’t be late or else ull spend the night there. Nobody lives there I think except for the birds and wildlife... it was a trip of a lifetime

Mehnaz A Bangash

Wonderful and unforgettable!!! Amazing experience on the boat tour to île Bonaventure et du rocher percé. We came across a lot of whales which doubled the excitement along with the crashing waves of the sea that made us all wet.

Hélène Marquis

(Translated) An experience not to be missed. The tour of the island by taking the king's path is worth the detour. (Original) Une expérience à ne pas manquer. Le tour de l'île en empruntant le chemin du roi vaut le détour.

Layla Nawfa

Perfect place ,need to visit

Israel Padilla

Incredible place

Jahan Nasimi

Excellent kayak place

Tony Luo

A must-see place of Perce.

Lisa Elminowski

Absolutely beautiful trails, views, and interpretation centres. Stay to the right side of the boat to get the best view of the seals as you come around the island! And bring your own snacks and lots of water, as there is only one cafe at the dock, and it is quite expensive.

Sheila Southon

Be prepared for a rocky hike of at least 6km of you want to see the gannet colony. Longer hikes are beautiful too and well kept.

U Simard

(Translated) What a beautiful hike along the river on the Roy trail! Two seals were basking their belly on a small isolated beach! And the gannets ... there are no words to translate the wonder that this colony awakened in me! (Original) Quelle belle randonnée en longeant le fleuve sur le sentier du Roy! Deux phoques se doraient la bedaine sur une petite plage isolée ! Et les fous de Bassan...il n'y a pas de mots pour traduire l'émerveillement que cette colonie a éveillé en moi!

Lizets Eidelman

Great adventure ! Must see!! Take water and sun screen.

The island, the northern Gannets are wonderful

Calcium

There are billions of birds

Bandula Liyanaarachchi

Place that one should not miss

Luke Leslie

Absolutely beautiful and full of wild life

Giulia Plat

(Translated) Magnificent site, very beautiful nature and populated by thousands of birds called gannets. The island is not very big, which allows you to discover it well in one day! We recommend that you take the guided tour (with Line) which was very informative and interesting! This takes place every day around 10 a.m. (Original) Magnifique site, très belle nature et peuplé de milliers d'oiseaux nommés les fous de Bassan. L'île n'est pas très grande, ce qui permet de bien la découvrir en une journée ! Nous vous recommandons de faire la visite guidée (avec Line) qui fut très instructive et intéressante ! Celle ci a lieu tous les jours vers 10h

Florian Coignee

(Translated) Superb walk in the heart of a beautiful island, really beautiful, marked trails, forest guide on site. Paying access !!! Really a nice walk in the heart of nature (Original) Superbe balade au cœur d'une île magnifique, vraiment beau, sentiers balisés, guide forestier sur place . Accès payant !!! Vraiment une belle balade au cœur de la nature

Billy James Cahill Picard

(Translated) Great experience, beautiful trail! The kiosk near the northern gannets takes only credit or cash, to be expected! (Original) Super expérience, beau sentier! Le kiosque près des fous de bassans ne prenne que crédit ou comptant, à prévoir !

David Laflamme

Truly a wonderful place to visit, to avid walkers or likers of nature all alike!!

Alexander Cee

One of the most beautiful and relaxing places I've been to in a long time! Great to see how people lived many years ago. Don't need to travel outside of Canada when we have these natural beauties in our own backyard! Go... You will regret it if you don't!

Alvaro Diego Herrera

The best place in Gaspésie. Great paths to trek beside the seashore

Anastasia S

Beautiful park with beautiful nature. Must see! Enjoy bird watching there and whales while getting there.

Marion

(Translated) A very beautiful place that you absolutely must see. The pierced rock is nice but the island is really incredible. It is breathtaking this colony of northern gannets! Good on the other hand the 40 $ of the boat ..... it still hurts. It's a shame that there is no other way to get that is a little cheaper .... (Original) Un très bel endroit qu'il faut absolument voir. Le rocher percé est sympa mais l'ile est vraiment incroyable. C'est époustouflant cette colonie de fou de bassan ! Bon par contre le 40$ du bateau.....ca fait quand même mal. C'est chien qu'il n'y ait pas d'autre moyen de se rendre qui soit un peu moins cher....

Robin Reji

Enjoyed the hike there. We took the shorter trail to reach the view point and on the way back, we took the longer trail that consists of stairs and it was easier to climb down

jaehyuk koo

You will never realize how it is awesome until you see it for yourself. I really enjoyed eveything in Percé.

Oswaldo Gallango

Nice hiking track. View of the birds nest.

Josee Cadieux

Really nice place and I really like the fact that you are free on the island instead of having a guide and being with a lot of people.

Guilherme D. Garcia

Great place for hiking and bird watching.

Hojjat HAJIHOSSEINI

One of the best place that you can visit in Canada.

Anna Mirosh

I loved the birds :)

Rol. C.

Nice views !! Gannets, sea bass, ocean.

Sylvia Moujabber

A must see

Nick Fortin

(Translated) Superb Park with spectacular landscapes. The bird colonies are breathtaking and the Rocher Percé is still so photogenic. Too bad that there are people who do not respect the prohibition signs. Several seals have been observed basking in the sun. Do not hesitate to take a tour of Ile Bonaventure. (Original) Superbe Parc avec des paysages spectaculaires. Les colonies d'oiseaux sont à couper le souffle et le Rocher Percé toujours aussi photogénique. Dommage qu'il y a des gens qui ne respectent pas les panneaux d'interdiction. On y a observé plusieurs phoques se faisant dorer au soleil. Il ne faut surtout pas hésiter à faire le tour de l'Ile Bonaventure.

Chaim Vshalom Tours

We had a great bbq and chance to see sunset from the boat

Kammilla Monteiro

Amazing experience

Jean-Yves PARET

(Translated) Beautiful island populated by a huge colony of crazy bass. The trails are very well laid out. The complete tour of the island is a little over 8 km, the direct return to the colonies a little less than 6km. (Original) Très belle île peuplée d'une immense colonie de fou de bassants. Les sentiers sont très bien aménagés. Le tour complet de l'île fait un peu plus de 8 km, l'aller retour direct à la colonies un peu moins de 6km.

J-l G

(Translated) Very beautiful landscape but too much landscaped by humans and a lot of damage caused by humans too. Worth experience at least 1 time (Original) Très beaux paysage mais trop aménagé par l'humain et beaucoup de dommages causés par l'humain aussi. Ça vaut expérience au moins 1 fois

Gary Chen

It's a very good place to visit and hiking here. You need spend one day here. And take a cruise to this island, somebody call it "bird island" because there are thousands of birds here.

Gaëtan Trellu

The Gannet is an experience to live (even if you are not a big birds fan). We had the chance to see a lot of seals! The meadows are colorful!

William Cantin

Awesome spot for hiking. The views are breathtaking and the bird spot is amazing!

Bill B

A must visit.

Marie-Anne Lalonde

(Translated) Wow! A superb hike leading to the colony. A must in Percé. I recommend the Moss trail on the way there and the King's Way on the way back. Bring your lunch / water / snacks. There are a few options out there but it's limited ... (Original) Wow! Une superbe randonnée débouchant sur la colonie. Un incontournable à Percé. Je recommande le sentier des Mousses à l’aller à et le chemin du roi au retour. Amenez votre lunch/ eau / collations. Il y a quelques options sur place mais c’est limité...

Olivier Faubert

(Translated) A perfect hiking spot for families with 4 beginner to intermediate tracks. The latter have 300 steps on different stairs. The longest circuit is less than 10km and in less than 2h30. Plan a stop at the Gannet Sanctuary at this time. Good food and Pit Caribou is waiting for you! Good sea and land trek! Plan the day for the site visit. (Original) Une place de randonnée parfaite pour les familles avec 4 pistes de débutant à intermédiaire. Ces dernières ont 300 marches sur différents escaliers. Le circuit le plus long fait moins de 10km et ce fait en moins de 2h30. Prévoir l'arrêt au sanctuaire des fous de Bassan à ce temps. De bonnes victuailles et de la Pit Caribou vous attend à celui-ci! Bonne randonnée maritime et terrestre! Prévoyez la journée pour la visite du site.

Melanie Haverstock

Exciting! Beautiful walk to a cliff edge with thousands of Northern Gannets and many other birds along the trails. Amazing experience!

Marc Gautreau

Beautiful walking trails. Kids had a blast

Philippe Rebuffel

(Translated) Superb park. Very large colony of gannets. Beautiful and impressive (Original) Superbe parc. Très grande colonie de fous de bassan. Beau et impressionnant

lau del

(Translated) The detour is definitely worth it! The birds (Northern Gannets) are incredible. It is a real sight for the eyes. The ace trail of the grand tour of the island is also worth it. Beautiful trail and beautiful view! (Original) Le détour en vaut vraiment la peine! Les oiseaux (fou de Bassan) sont incroyables. C'est un vrai spectacle pour les yeux. Le as sentier du grand tour de l'île en vaut aussi la peine. Beau sentier et belle vue!

Mikchela Saint-amour

Nice place

Sreenivas Katragadda

Gannets....

yES smertes

(Translated) Do not miss a cruise ship that goes around the island. Then this same boat will drop you on the island. If you take the one at 11:00 you may have the chance (like us) to make an informative walk of 1:30 with Paul, naturalist guide of the Park. Then another 10 minutes walk and arrived on the edges of the cliffs that shelter the mad of Hassan, very numerous !! Continue on Chemin des Roys for 90 minutes to return to the starting point. Beautiful day with a last boat at 17:00 and return to Perce in a quarter of an hour. (Original) A ne pas manquer, prendre un bateau de croisière qui fait le tour de l'île. Puis ce même bateau vous déposera sur l'île. Si vous prenez celui de 11h00 vous aurez peut-être la chance (comme nous) de faire une balade instructive de 1h30 avec Paul, guide naturaliste du Parc. Puis encore 10 minutes de marche et arrivée sur les bords des falaises qui abritent les fous de Hassan, fort nombreux!! Poursuivre sur le chemin des Roys pendant 90 minutes pour revenir au point de départ. Magnifique journée avec un dernier bateau à 17h00 et retour à Percé en un 1/4 d'heure.

Joey Rene

Beautiful place to visit Calm trails to do and amazing views

D Stewart

Quaint town and absolutely stunning scenery. We weren't able to get to Perce Rock because there weren't any boats available and it was high tide, but we walked down to the beach and got as close as we could. Definitely worth a visit, but we were happy we stayed in Gaspé so we'd be closer to Parc National Forillon.

Patrice Laroche

Awesome!

Vincent Bernard

(Translated) Superb park on the island, long trails of intermediate difficulty. Food and toilets available on the island. The boats are managed by a local company, the Bateliers de Percé. (Original) Superbe parc sur l'île, longues pistes de difficulté intermédiaire. Nourriture et toilettes disponibles sur l'île. Les bateaux sont gérés par une compagnie locale, les Bateliers de Percé.

Felipe Rojas

great place for a sunny day with the family

Bessem Ben Abdallah

(Translated) Something to absolutely visit! It is a must-see place. I advise you when you are at the place to buy a ticket to go around Percé rock and the splendid Bonaventure Island ???? You will see thousands of birds that shelter the island and also you will see the seals ???????????? Good fun everyone ???? (Original) Quelque chose à visiter absolument! C’est un lieu incontournable. Je vous conseille quand vous serez sur le lieu d’acheter un billet pour faire le tour entre roche Percé et la splendide île Bonaventure ???? Vous verrez des milliers de oiseaux qui abritent l’île et aussi vous verrez les phoques ???????????? Bon amusement à tous ????

Jérôme Laurent

(Translated) A very nice experience for young and old! Some will be able to take the long route and go around the island as others will be able to go directly to the main attraction of the island, the colony of pond boobies. A paradise for ornithologists but still very popular with neophytes who want to enjoy the view. The boat ride that brings us to the island gives us a breath of fresh air and the opportunity to observe the pierced rock from all angles! If you go around the corner, you have to go! (Original) Une très belle expérience pour petit et grand! Certain pourront prendre le grand trajet et faire le tour de l'île comme dautres pourront se rendre directement à l'attrait principal de l'île, la colonie de fou de bassin. Un paradie pour les ornithologue mais tout de même fort apprécié des néophytes ui veulent profiter de la vue. Le tour de bateau qui nous amènes sur l'île nous donne un vent de fraîcheur et l'occasion d'observer le rocher percé sous tous ses angles! Si vous passez dans le coins, vous devez y aller!

Wonderful place to visit Percé could be very crowded and "touristic " sometimes.

(Translated) Incredible protected site in which are arranged beautiful family walks. I recommend starting with the Colonial Trail and returning by the Roy Road, paying attention to the time of return: the last ferry returns at 17h. (Original) Incroyable site protégé dans lequel sont aménagées de superbes balades familles. Je recommande de démarrer avec le sentier des Colonies et de revenir par le chemin du Roy en faisant attention à l'heure de retour : le dernier ferry rentre à 17h.

Wow!!!!!!!

The tour to get there is a nice extra as they get us closer to the Rocher Percé and the borders of the Bonaventure island. Watching all fauna around (birds, seals) is very breathtaking. We even get to see some killer whales (I think it was them, but I'm not sure). On the island, there's a small restaurant which is convenient if you don't have a snack ready. The trails are a bit ordinary, but depending on the ones you take, you'll get better views. All trails lead to a close-up of a spectacular gannets gathering, and the birds seem okay with humans presence! My only grip is that waiting for a boat to return to the continent might take a while.

Pierre-André Gobeil

(Translated) If you take a boat ride to see the rock from near. Do you plan to have pocket money? You will have to pay an amount of $ 7.20 per adult to access the island otherwise you will have to wait 40 minutes for the next boat. (Original) Si vous effectuez un tour en bateau pour voir le rocher de proches. Prévoyez vous de l'argent de poche. Vous allez devoir déboursé un montant de 7,20$ par adulte pour avoir accès à l'île sinon devrais attendre 40 min pour le prochain bateau.

Manthan Makwana

This is one of the most beautiful isolated islands. The cruise from Perce takes you around the island (appx 45 mins trip one way) where you will be able to see big cology of gannet. If lucky, you could also get to see seals during the cruise trip to the island. The elevation of this island is not too high so most of the hiking paths are easy. It is worth to hike till the tip if you would like to see pathbreaking view of gannet colony along the spectecular view of Atlantic Ocean

Laurent Duveau

(Translated) Nice family day with small trails to go to the colony of birds (1:30 round trip) or go around the island (3 hours round trip), there are 4 trails in all, well maintained. There is no drinking water on the island and only 2 places to buy bottles, bring your water! A small restaurant at the entrance of the island, but it is much more interesting to have a picnic in the landscaped area near the colony! $ 8.75 per adult to pay to SEPAQ at the entrance, no debit, cash or credit. Tip: pay your entrance fee to the village Percé before taking the boat, so you will avoid the crowd when the boat arrives on the island! (Original) Belle journée en famille avec petits sentiers pour se rendre à la colonie des oiseaux (1h30 aller-retour) ou faire le tour de l'île (3h aller-retour), il y a 4 sentiers en tout, bien entretenus. Il n'y a pas d'eau potable sur l'île et seulement 2 places pour acheter des bouteilles, apportez votre eau! Un petit restaurant a l'entrée de l'île, mais il est bien plus intéressant de faire un pique nique a l'espace aménagé proche de la colonie! 8,75$ par adulte a payer à SEPAQ a l'entrée, pas de débit, cash ou crédit. Astuce: payez votre droit d'entrée au village Percé avant de prendre le bateau, ainsi vous éviterez la foule a l'arrivée du bateau sur l'île!

Minh Dang-Nguyen

(Translated) Super beautiful island to visit. Beautiful paths to be made on foot. It's still impressive to see the amount of crazy bassant. Make sure you eat well or bring your own food and water as you will be paying a lot more when you are on the island. (Original) Super bel île à visiter. Des beau chemins à faire à pied. C'est quand même impressionant de voir la quantité de fous de bassant. Assurez vous de bien manger ou de vous amener votre repas et votre eau car vous allez payer bien davantage rendu sur l'île.

Amazing experience. Must do if you're in Percé

Régis Cahn

(Translated) Obviously, the island of Bonaventure! A must! It is true the site is very beautiful and very nature. Of course, everything is touristically well organized, between the logistics of the boat, the entrance of the Park, but despite the crowds, you want to go back. On arrival, there is a briefing by the park guards, and then, it is possible to make a guided tour with a naturalist who divulge a lot of information on the history, the geology, the fauna and the flora. To be continued ! On the island, nature lovers will enjoy colonies of gannets and will be happy to watch seals, cormorants and may have the chance to meet small rodents or red foxes. I hope that all this organization, this work of the park will conserve this ecosystem ... In the end it is well seen, the flow of visitors is channeled on major roads and nature is better. Finally, the day goes too fast! The must of the region! Accessible to the greatest number, families ... (Original) Évidement, l'île de Bonaventure ! Un incontournable ! C'est vrai le site est très beau et très nature. Bien sûr, tout est touristiquement bien organisé, entre la logistique du bateau, l'entrée du Parc, mais malgré d'affluence, tu as envie d'y retourner. A l'arrivée, il y a un briefing par les gardes du Parc, puis ensuite, il est possible de faire une visite guidée avec une naturaliste qui divulgue de nombreuses informations sur l'histoire, la géologie, la faune et la flore. A suivre ! Sur l'île, les amoureux de nature apprecierons les colonies de Fous de Bassans et seront heureux s'observer les phoques, les Cormorans et auront peut-être la chance de rencontrer des petits rongeurs ou le renard roux. J'espère que tout cette organisation, ce travail du parc permettra de conserver cet écosystème...Au final c'est bien vu, le flux de visiteurs est canalisé sur des grands axes et la nature s'en porte mieux. Finalement, la journée passe trop vite ! Le must de la région ! Accessible au plus grand nombre, aux familles...

(Translated) Magnificent day! Hot but the madmen were there, as well as nature and the sea. Lots of people, however, but the SÉPAQ staff were dynamic and explained the rules well.

A nice park to visit. The boat ride from Perce was great with a circle around the Rock and a circle around the island. Saw lots of birds and seals. On the island the Northern Gannets were spectacular to see. Thousands of them. Trail was easy to moderate for all ages.

Chaitravi K

What a splendid beauty this place is. Truly worry of a hidden gem!!! This was absolutely gorgeous and bewitching. The sights were incredible and flamboyant. This is an amazing place to bring the entire joint family along to. Truly marvelous for picnics and whatnot. Amazing for camping, sledding, hiking, biking, running, jogging, swimming. The staff was bilingual so it was very comfortable. Parking was free and there was wheelchair access as well. Same goes without saying for washrooms. All the families were very posh and clean. The staff was so nice and pleasant and the directions were very well pointed out. This place classifies as natural environment. Not many people know about this splendid place but it's truly worth visiting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Matt

Great hike to see the bird colonies.

Fred O

(Translated) Very nice place to walk to admire gannets, guillemots, seals, whales with remarkable views of the sea and Percé Rock, very well maintained and easy trails, restaurant and toilets throughout the course, the boat ride is a part also pleasure to visit this island which for me is a must when you come to Percé. I highly recommend this activity which takes about 5 hours, the boats leave at 9 am and all the following hours, the return is also done at the battery hours until 17h. (Original) Très beau lieu de promenade pour admirer fou de bassan, guillemots, phoques, baleines avec des vues remarquables sur la mer et le rocher Percé, sentiers très bien entretenus et faciles, restaurant et toilettes tout au long du parcours, la ballade en bateau fait partie aussi du plaisir de visiter cette île qui pour moi est un incontournable lorsque l'on vient à Percé. Je recommande vivement cette activité qui prend environ 5 heures, les bateaux partent à 9h et toutes les heures suivantes, le retour se fait aussi aux heures piles jusqu'à 17h.

(Translated) A must ... The Rocher Percé is the starting point and it already sets the bar high. My favorite, a place we don't talk about enough, is Bonaventure Island. Superb. The hikes are magnificent, the naturalists are very kind and attentive. They know their business. There is a treasure hunt for children. The island has several ecosystems all very beautiful and well developed. The trails are very well maintained. Northern gannets are beautiful and you can see them very closely, almost touch them. It is a unique experience. Plan around 4 hours to enjoy and bring your lunch and lots of water. Be careful not to miss the last boat back at 5 p.m. (Original) Un must...

L'île comporte plusieurs écosystèmes tous très beaux et bien mis en valeur. Les sentiers sont très bien entretenus. Les fous de bassans sont magnifiques et on peut les voir de très près, presque les toucher. C'est une expérience unique. Prévoir autour de 4 heures pour bien profiter et apportez votre lunch et beaucoup d'eau. Attention de ne pas rater le dernier bateau de retour à 17h.

Louay Jabry

Everything from the boat ride and tour of the perce rock, the sweeping coastal view, the incredible sight of tens of thousands of Gannet birds, to the open sky, cliff-hanging trails make this park among the top in the world.

(Translated) MUST !! Cruise ($ 38 per person) that brings you to Bonnaventure Island passes near the rock. On the way we can meet seals, eagles, cormorants and even a lucky whale. Once on the island, there is a 45-minute hike to the site of the northern gannet colony. Really made the detour !! (Original) MUST !! Croisière (38$ par personne) qui vous apporte à l'île Bonnaventure passe près du rocher. Sur le trajet on peu croiser phoques, aigles, cormorans et même une baleine si chanceux. Une fois sur l'île, il y a une rando de 45 min pour se rendre au site de la colonnie de fou de bassan. Fait vraiment le détour!!

Margarita Ibbott (DownshiftingPRO)

A Canadian bucket list location, Percé Rock is best seen as you cruise to Île-Bonaventure from the Village of Percé. Once you land you start ascending towards various lookout points. You can hike to the other side of the island to see (and hear) one of the largest colonies of Northern gannets in the world, with 51,700 pairs in 2011. The hike is medium level of difficulty but there is a clearly marked trail and a small restaurant to sit and have a cool drink or a snack.

It is a place were you must see

Murielle Yockell

(Translated) Must do! Take advantage of the deck or the outdoor terrace to enjoy the sea air, beautiful animation, the sound of the microphone is greater than that of the interior of the small cruise ship. Sheltered from the wind below, the benches are spread over three or four rows. Passengers can view the scenery through large, drab portholes. Lots of background noise, the microphone sounds cacophonous. Our regret: We did not do the approximately 45-minute hike to see the northern gannets on Bonaventure Island due to lack of time. (Original) À faire absolument! Profitez du pont ou de la terrasse extérieure pour bénéficier de l'air marin, bel animation, le son du microphone est supérieur à celui de l'intérieur du petit bateau de croisière. En bas à l'abri du vent, les bancs sont répartis sur trois ou quatre rangées. Les passagers peuvent voir le décor à travers de grands hublots ternes. Beaucoup de bruits de fond, le microphone sonne cacanne. Notre regret: Nous n'avons pas fait la randonnée d'environ 45 minutes pour aller voir les fous de Bassan sur l'île Bonaventure par manque de temps.

Marie-Annick Vigneault

(Translated) Wow! The gannet colonies are impressive. Arrive early to make the most of the experience, you cannot book your crossing for a specific time, it is first come first served until the ferries are full. At the start, the boatmen take you past the Percé Rock and go around the island so that you can see the colonies of birds nestled on the cliffs, seals and if you are lucky minke whales before dropping you off at the sea. dock. Remember to bring food and drink, as it is quite expensive on site. There are 4 trails on the island, they all lead to the settlements and it's really impressive. Must do once in a lifetime. (Original) Wow! Les colonies de fous de Bassan sont impressionnantes. Arrivez tôt pour profiter au maximum de l'expérience, vous ne pouvez pas réserver votre traversée pour une heure précise, c'est premier arrivé premier servi jusqu'à ce que les traversiers soient complets. Au départ, les bateliers vous font passer devant le Rocher Percé et font le tour de l'île afin que vous puissiez voir les colonies d'oiseaux nichés sur les falaises, des phoques et si vous êtes chanceux des petits rorquals avant de vous déposer au quai. Pensez à vous apporter à boire et à manger, car c'est assez dispendieux sur place. Il y a 4 sentiers sur l'île, ils mènent tous aux colonies et c'est vraiment impressionnant. À faire absolument une fois dans sa vie.

The Roy hiking trail (~10K )was beautiful.This tour is a bit pricey but it's definitely worth it.

The hiking trails are great! Especially the one along the coast where we saw seals and a whale and of course the thousands of gannets. Really a unique experience ! A must in the region.

Parc national de l'Île-Bonaventure-et-du-Rocher-Percé is located at the end of the Gaspé peninsula, it composed of Bonaventure Island the majestic Percé Rock, the tourist emblem of Quebec. Its famous colony of northern gannets, the third largest colony and most accessible in the world make it a must-see destination, and there are some buildings of former islander's homes to witness the life once there of the last century. Taking the cruise from perce quai to circle the Rock and to the island. There are 4 hiking trails, the simple way is hiking to the Colony where the Gannett stay, then walk 5 minutes to the Lookout tower(you can see it standing over the cliffs when on the cruise), then continue hiking to the dock, it would take 2.5 to 3 hours, observing and hiking, you can see seals in the water and on rocks, and you can observe the Rock from different angles and perspectives. The northern gannet colony has 116,000 birds, a must see! The park opens from May 31 to October 11. Daily fee is 9 dollars per adult, kids under 17 are free.

Fred Marier

Watching the Gannet is amazing however the boat ride to get there is one hour and the hike is 1 to two hours. Once you see the Gannet there is tons of flies and the smell was overwhelming. once you include the boat ride and entry to the park it is $50 per person.

Stunning! I would highly recommend the Boat tour! To get on the island its an extra 8.50$ but worth it! Start with the "Le Mousse" trail up to the bird and finish with "Roy" trail that is facing the ocean! Its the easiest way to see everything and its absolutly amazing.

bozidar jug

Nature at its best

Mathieu Tremblay

I loved how this park offers a variety of trails that all go to and from the Gannett colony (the island's best attraction), thus allowing visitors to pick a route that matches the time they have to spend on the island/physical ability. Trails are well-kept and well-marked. Commodities are abundant and there even seemed to be more paths in development. All trails are relatively easy and the views are great. Definitely worth a stop.

Vahid Mohammadian

Beautiful

Renata Pereira

A must see experience

Eric P

It is a good place to see lots of birds and a ton of them! Though the trails are pretty banal as you got nothing to see as you take the ones that passes inside the island. As you get on the edge you see tons of birds and it gets interedting. Take the cruise that circle around the island to get there it is worth the trip.

Brian Kalte

Ferry to the island toured both sides of Percé Rock before a full tour around the island before docking. Great to see Bonaventure from a water perspective before hiking the island. We enjoyed the hike very much. We didn't find the trail we took difficult at all. I am not a bird guy but it was very interesting. So many birds and they don't get along very well. Not an easy life being a gannett!

Andrew Bossé

The Roy hiking trail is very nice, and of course seeing the northern gannets at the end of the trail. If you're in the Gaspésie region it's pretty much a must to visit. The downside: the ferry ride is almost an hour, and they aren't shy to pack the boat like sardines during Covid times. Try to go off peak hours and avoid the first ferry to the island at 8:45.

David Mark

Great hike.

(Translated) Very disappointed $ 42 for the boat to cross only on the island we learn that it takes a ticket to take the trails to have learned it before would have been appreciated but hey ???? (Original) Très déçu 42$ pour le bateau pour traverser seulement rendu sur l île on apprend que ça prend un billet pour prendre les sentiers l avoir appris avant aurait été apprécié mais bon ????

The Park itself is beautiful, a healthy ecosystem with an abundance of wildlife and excellent wildlife trails. However the entry and exit to the park leaves much to be desired. There is no organisation, people are herded together after they come off the boat and not allowed to enter the park until they all get a lecture. The lecture is not very useful since the trail maps are there to read and treating the trails, flora and fauna with respect is the usual practice in a natural park. Then there is a crush to go through the booth and pay and you are finally allowed to be in the park. On attempting to leave, people wander down to the dock to wait for a scheduled boat, but there is no orderly line so you hang around. Then the boat comes and only a few people can fit on it, and there is a wild rush for the ramp. Then all the people who are lined up on the ramp waiting find that the next boat comes to another ramp and they are then at the back of the line and miss the next boat. Some people even missed 3 boats. There was no communication to the people about how soon another boat would come, or about how many people it would hold, and where to line up. Unfortunately, a beautiful day in the park marred by a very unpleasant experience at the end.

(Translated) Wonderful landscape. This Percé Rock is so impressive! ???? The landscape is breathtaking. It is now forbidden to walk to the rock in order to protect the species that live there and if you did not know, there are a little more than 5 Tons of rocks that fall per Week from this mastodon. Too bad the restaurants are overpriced in Percé. Know this in order to plan a budget, it is a bit excessive. Also plan the crossing to Bonaventure Island. (Original) Magnifique paysage. Ce Rocher Percé est tellement impressionnant!???? Le paysage est à couper le souffle. Il est désormais interdit de marcher jusqu'au rocher afin de protéger les espèces qui y vivent et si vous ne le saviez pas, il y a un peu plus de 5 Tonnes de roches qui tombent par Semaine de ce mastodonte. Dommage que les restaurants soient hors de prix à Percé. Sachez-le afin de vous prévoir un budget, c'est un peu abusif. Prévoyez aussi la traversé à l'île Bonaventure.

Beautiful park. It's a pleasant walk up to the top and the views are incredible. Definitely Italy worth a visit!
