Reviews of Forillon National Park (Spa)

Carlo Madeja

How do you even begin to rate a national park like Forillon? It’s a stunning beauty with hiking trails and the sense of true connection with nature. We walked with sauntering birds and watched whales spray water high into the air offshore. The sunset was killer as were the views from the Lands End Belvedere. Highly recommended.

so beautiful and so peaceful

Tao Chen

Fantastic. Like for real.

Melissa Dawn

Great parc, it has different trails, some long distance and some short ones. We have had great views and we have seen some animals as well.

Gino Cavicchioli

So many humpback whale in early July! Very easy to see them breaching out of the sea from the beach!

Faezeh Rouhbakhsh

Stunning if we had more time we would have booked a site here and throw up the tent.

Leila Bautista

Quite simply - EXCEPTIONAL! If I could give this location 6 stars I would. The site is beautiful, everything is clean and well maintained. The views are breathtaking and the hiking is awesome! Dogs are accepted everywhere which is great when traveling with the fur babies! All the staff was very friendly, would go back in a heartbeat ❤️ Thank you!!

Scott O'Donnell

Loved it! Beautiful park with scenic views and lovely hiking trails.

Israa Hilles

Must Visit Place!! We went for whale watching; saw 8 whales and 2 sea lions ????. One of the most amazing experience I’ve ever had in my life! Pictures can never justify the experience that you can have here! You can easily spend 2 days here…

Raphael Morin

BEAUTIFUL, did the mont st-alban hike at dawn,

Veera Gautham

Beautiful park! Cap Bon Ami lookout point, part of the Mont St Albans trail was amazing. Wonderful hikes and rewarding views

Redemption Song

Very windy and storm though out the week in des rosiers camp site so be prepared to have sleepless nights. Also check the weather and be prepared to take the rain. Its a beautiful place but weather can change every minute here and spoil your plan.

Doug Bailey

Its a beautiful place to visit with your family, walk and enjoy the nature

Maryse Basque

Awesome place, met wonderful people....Had a hiking session..Lucky to see the mama black bear with her small one, Groundhog, Porcupine and a Moose. The bear stood in our only path to return home. We waited there for 20 mins until a group of people with guide came to rescue us. A tip is to move in groups; make noise, clap. This made bears move aside. My campsite was very close to pebble beach. I was listening to waves all the time.

Robert-François Trudeau

The visitor center has so much fun for the kids.

Jean-Félix Perreault

This park is amazing and peacefully. The view is beautiful. Hiking is the activity to do to enjoy the nature.

Sam Dowal

Too too big to explore, guys you need couple of days to explore different areas. There is wild life, marine life, walking tracks, fishing areas...the staff at entry gates to paid areas was extremely helpful and cooperative. I loved the place and wish had more time.

Peter Bosi

Love this Park, visited it during winter. It has a long walking trail to the chalet close to the water. The chalet was open, we were able to enter to warm up a bit. Having snowshoes would help a lot because the snow was deep in some areas along the trail. Good to dress in layers too. Would love to go back and see it during the summer. Did some amazing hiking this summer at Forillon Park 2018,it is so beautiful, from hiking to Land's End to Mount Alban. Loved it! So beautiful and a huge park to explore.

Tobin Soucy

Amazing garden beautiful area

Rich Durant

One of my favorite National Parks. Unforgettable to camp in the park and see the sunrise from ocean.

Jessica Liang

Just one word, super

Sarah-Eve Philippe

Beautiful park! Takes days to explore it all!

Lisa Dawn

Great park. A bucket list experience.

Yulia S

What a beautiful place!!

Reinhart Gruhn

Awesome landscape! (My advice : It's good to know the length of the trail but between 5km on flat and 1km in hills it's not the same thing at all! x) )

Arjun Bharioke

I had a great time in the park. It was so much wildlife. It was peaceful theres the beach, mountain and lots of light house. Lots of things to do you need a week to fully discover.

Loredana Oiegas

Beautiful escape from the city

Elvis Wu

The most amazing place to visit. 16 hours of driving......totally worth it.

fozia mahboub

What a stunning national park! My wife and I did the Mont Saint-Alban loop with the Cap-Bon-Ami out and back spur and the weather was absolutely gorgeous. It was one of the most beautiful hikes we've ever done. The Cap-Bon-Ami spur is very steep, but definitely worth it. The views on the beach are incredible. The entire hike took about 3 hours.

Hugo Lopez

Amazing place to visit we did whale watching that was amazing experience

Kamini S

Absolutely stunning. Kinda reminds me of cape Breton in certain parts. Veatiful water falls. Super high cliffs. Great all around drive.

Alireza Aslemand

Wonderful view and friendly staff! The paths were amazing and perfect for all levels of hikers.

Ludovic Trudel Fontaine

A couple of decent trails to hike, one to the land's end, and the other to the observation tower.

quebec gal

We had one of the most enjoyable paddles in our sea kayaks from the Grande Grave to Cap Gaspé and back. Seals and sea birds in abundance with calm seas, fair winds, and sunshine in late August. Our campsite at Petite Gaspé area E was level and private, but felt dark and excessively humid. The sanitary facilities were Ok, but there was only one dishwashing sink. A couple of the other loops in this campground were closed, but appeared to have better bathrooms/dishwashing facilities. We barely scratched the surface of this park, so we'll need to return to see more of it.

jack gondela

Beautiful park. We stopped in a the welcome center (Penouille) to take a quick stoll on the beach where the kids found lots of seaglass. They enjoyed their time here. We then had a quick snack at the canteen. Food and service was awesome. We then headed down further in the park for a nice hike to the waterfall.

Fion Lee

Heavenly beautiful!

Adnan Faisal

Great park with amazing views and hikes. I wish we could have stayed longer!

kristof tuerlinckx

Beautiful views including the tower! Has a nice waterfalls too with red chair! The facilities are a little worn down though

Zu Qiang

A wonderful place to explore! Lots of great opportunities to hike and see the spectacular scenery and wildlife.

Hooman B

Beautiful ocean views and a lots of wildlife to observe.

Miss B.

Perfect place either for day or night this national park is really nice.

Lancelot Desrochers

Beautiful park, well maintained. It's so magnificent you don't want to leave.

Oleksii Rybachko

Great place. Amazing view at "the end of the world".

Tim Ryeland

A very nice place to walk. Although it is hot, you should be fine with a lot of water. The view was one of the best you can get in Quebec. Recommended!

mark andrew hamilton

The most beautiful national park we have ever seen!!!

LEONARDO BLENGINI

Get ready fo a long steep walk, bring some drinking water .... their is a restroom at the top where the tower is... spectacular views...marine animals like seals and whales ....birds and wild animals.

Edouard Matte

So many great hiking trails and interesting accommodations.

Dineshkumar Kolimi

Outstanding trails. Well maintained. NOT WELL INDICATED as to km here or there..ON the trails. My husband and I began The St Alban trail, which should have been 7.8 km, and ended up being 15km, as we looped back, adjacent, backwards, WHO KNOWS. We ended up being directed to the highway where we walked 2 km to the highway to get to our parking lot at Plague Gaspe. Geesh. Perhaps signs saying, "you are here" or for example on The St Albans trail there could have been an arrow indicating parking lot for Plague Gaspe but no, instead we turned left Cape Bon Ami, which was only a 600 meter climb at a 30 to 45 degrees rough, trail. All that said, I WOULD DO IT ALL AGAIN, as the view and pristine AIR is worth it. Plus many Whales, A Grey Seal, many sea birds i have NEVER seen in NB while walking The Grand Grange trial which was 15.3 but so worth it.

Matt

What a place, what a space... Magic at every turn, beauty and vibrations of nature grounding and feeding your soul. The sea, the hikes, the activities, the water sports, the beaches, the flowers, the green vastness framed by cliffs against a backdrop filled with the elements that make up each one of us. Full amenities and facilities available, clean as a whistle, classy design of the common spaces, prices are very affordable and access is varied according to different types of hikes and levels of expertise. Highly recommend visiting or even staying for a few nights.

J LA

We really loved our stay here, the park was fantastic, everything we wanted and more. The facilities were great, the staff were friendly and helpful and the campsites were amazing. So much to explore and do!

Bryan Cngan

Definitely worth to visit.

Chris

Truly breathtaking!

Glenda Smith

Snow shoeing paths open , awesome weather

Pauline Watson- Beaulieu

Stunning! Amazing trails, sweeping vistas, great camping.

Jess R

Super nice place. There a lot of hiking to make. The landscape look so cool. It’s just incredible!!!!

Brooks Piper

Absolutely wonderful natural park

Robert Mack

Always a great camping and trail experience. One of our favorite parks.

Michelle Lee

Amazing! Do the lookout hike, but bring plenty of water. It's worth it but it can get hot!

Ioana Bruj

One of the best national parks I've been to. Nice trails, amazing view and great wildlife.

Ann Smith

Amazing view, nice place, kept clean and quite

S. C

Everything is indicated very clearly.

Mo Cons

The Cap-Gaspe (shiphead) is absolutely majestic. I was there early so there were only a handful of tourists. It's a must see place when you visit the Gaspe peninsula. I visited the Bonaventure Island, Perce Rock, the Suspended glass on Mont Saint-Annne (Perce) but this one was my absolute favorite place/Park.

Chevani Nursimulu

This is the end of the gaspé peninsula. Canadians do parks right, this is no exception. Stunning countryside, mountains and the sea.

nancy yang

One of the most beautiful park I've been at in Canada. The view from the watchtower is a magical panorama!

Caroline Giroud

Forillon is a beautiful park. The rugged landscape was awesome. Reminded me a lot of Cape Breton. Due to some construction in the Petit Gaspé campground we weren't able to book all of our dates in that campground so we decided to try the Cap des Rosiers campground for a few nights and so glad we did. The views from that shore are amazing. Hiking to the top of the Mont Saint Alban tower is a must for everyone. Lots to see and do. If you are planning to stay for a week, I highly recommend splitting your stay between the two campgrounds. You get to see a lot more of the park and it gives you an opportunity to refill your fresh tank (and dump the others).

Rucha Dave

Wonderful nature park with ocean views, 10 hiking trails within the park, one trail leading to starting spot of extended Appalachian Trail, and the End of Land, the lighthouse. The trail at the Cap Bon Ami is leading to 360 view look out tower, you can observe Grey and Harbour seal along the shore, you can see black bear cross the highway, and red fox peak through the bush if you are lucky and pay attention, a short trail called LA Chute is leading to a 17 meters high waterfall

jay ferson

A couple of good trails

Gabriel Langevin

Nice trail to hiking on it. Scenery is beautiful.

Anu Kamalanathan

Great view! So relaxing!

Claude Brabant

Must to go when you are in Gaspé or Percé area. Great trails with awesome views!

S Graham

Excellent place. We started with Bon Ami which has a nice look out. We also did the La Chute trail which is easy but ends with a beautiful waterfall.

Un Utilisateur Google

Well maintained and pleasant experience in camping

Marc Gautreau

Very nice views

Jabason Stanley

Amenities are clean and beautiful; employees are kind, courteous and very knowledgeable; the activities and views are breathtaking!

D Stewart

We had such a good time at the teardrop treehouse. The service building are all so nice. Amazing trails with amazing views. It's just so perfect. Staffs are soo so so so nice and helpful. We did not feel being judged by not speaking French. Also we had a hard time understand how to use the gas heater in the tree house and the staff drove over within 15min we called. Very nice experience. We only wish we could stay in the tree house for 2 nights. But getting a last minute cancellation on our anniversary was already a bless. Couldn't ask for more.

Krina T

One of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been in my life. It’s really worth it to spend some days there. The interactive center is also a must! Great fun for all ages. Down side: we wanted to buy souvenirs but after waiting for 30 min in the line, we gave up. We were the nexts in the line. There were 2 clerks but they just decided to chat with their clients FOR EVER. Shame!

Gajan Subas

The best place to watch wildlife and the hikes are doable.

Tarek Riman

Lovely place to camp and stay. Staff is very friendly and welcoming. I had a wonderful experience and was able to see wolf, bear, seals and whales during treks.

dan guo

Oh God, this place is magic! My favorite national park so far in Quebec. Must do for hikers and for those wanting to fully discover Gaspé. I definitely will go many times. It's clean, very well signalled, there's toilettes in pretty much any trail you take, and the views are just breathtaking. Love it!

Bill Gillard

My favorite park in Quebec. So beautiful

Elchikaah Haly

Lovely place with amazing scenery. Yesterday around noon, I left my bag at Plage de Petite-Gaspe but a friendly park ranger held it until I came back to find it. He also described how he would try to find my car and/or send it to the entrance for safe keeping. Thanks for being awesome!

Ana Alzate

Great park overall. The hikes and views are among the best anywhere.

Armen Harutyunyan

Loved it

Sidney Cooke

Most beautiful place in Québec.

Tyler Sun

This is one of the best national park in Quebec with spectacular views and it’s a great site for camping.

Cedric Woo

Nice place, magnificent view

Linda Abraham

Truly worth the extra 360m trek down from the lighthouse to reach the Land's end lookout, view is spectacular and spot whale ???? action in distance water.

Jon Fleig

Beautiful park with amazing view points and beaches! It helps that it's free this year too ;)

Yuli Ho

Extraordinary view, breath-taking, the water clean but cold, the beach just small stones no sand but is worth it ????????????

Eugeniya Vitko

There is magic here folks...

George M. Yordanov PGeo

Loved the observation tower hike. Beautiful park. Beach and mountains galor.

Yifei Yang

Awesome park with easy hike... even if the snow was still there early May! I even see a bear family... so cute and terrifying as I never encountered bears in the wild

P. M.E.

I wish I got to stay longer than two days!!! It’s worth the drive from Toronto and I’d recommend staying for a week MINIMUM!!

Kelly Boville

Cap Bon ami ! A MUST SEE!

Joshua Besecker

I had no idea that the world could still have scenery like this. Awesome!

Josué Martínez

Oh Canada, loved everything about this Park. Nice campground (Cap-des-Rosiers). Would not stay at Cap-Bon-Ami because the configuration doesn't fit our desired level of privacy.

BonbonL ART

Gorgeous national park with lots of different trails, varying from easy to difficult. Each sector has a uniqueness to it that is worth visiting.

Joel Jose

Best place in Quebec to do camping. Gigantic park with fantastic views.

AnaGyslinn Danae

Fantastic hiking and sightseeing.

Mazib Rahman

Absolutely gorgeous, incredibly clean and preserved. I camp a lot and enjoy being in the middle of no where and this was a great day. Wish I could have spent more time here!

Abdel Kiki

Incredible, beautiful, wild!!!

Meghan S

I went to take a walk to Land's End. I'm not a person in their best form, and at the end, my legs were dying because you have to go up for about half a kilometer at the end of the trail, but the view you get there is truly amazing and worth all your efforts. There is also an extra where you can go down and watch the seals in the sea from a certain distance. They even have a free binocular ready to observe them. The view from there is also very nice and worth all your efforts. Just get your legs ready to go back up... Also, if you are like me and you need to use a bathroom a lot of times, if you park your car at the end of the road, the only toilet cabin is at the end of the trail (after a 4 km walk).

Adam Hollett

Very good place, it is good for camping too.

Patricia Rios

This is now one of my favorite national parks in all of Canada. We camped for three nights in an Otentik and explored the area during the day. Facilities were all brand new and shiny, and there was plenty of staff. This is definitely worth a road trip again.

Danielle Fielding

Wow!! Such a beautiful place to go for a hike. There are easier (gravel roadway) and more rugged pathways (through the forest) for all hikers. The views from the top of the mountain by the lighthouse were extraordinary!!! Overlooking the water at the top of the land is a magical experience. Would recommend to anyone visiting the Gaspé area who enjoys the outdoors.

Victor Sun

Amazing place. Nature is awesome. Don’t forget to go to the bathrooms. Enjoy your the nature

Joe Derrick

So beautiful. I recommend taking in both sides of the park or you will miss out. The views are spectacular. First time here but I will be back.

Rama Mouhajer

Spent the day hiking and driving around the park. Well worth the time and the price (free on Canada's 150 )

Fiona FannyPack

Really good for enjoying the beach with the kids

Tomasz Kolodziej

My father was born and raised in the pharillon park he is from grande greve .A breath taking view of nature at its finest lots of animal seeing I visit this place every year the maison Blanchette is actually the place where my grandmother Emma Blanchette was born and raised my great grandfather Xavier blanchette was the one who built the house I recommend too visit

Mike Ou

Beautiful nature and good facilities.

Olaf

Absolutely breathtaking! By far our favorite area in Gaspe--we spent 5 half-days in this park and didn't have enough time to explore everything! My boyfriend, our puppy and I were able to do several trails: Les Graves, Mont Saint-Alban, La Taiga, les Parages, etc. We loved them all! Worth spending lots of time here, on a nice day, given there's so much to do. Photos simply don't do it justice. The only negative was that the last part of the Les Graves trail is closed, as of Cap St-Georges, so we weren't able to do it :(

Mohamad Bakhach

Very nice park, huge place, need more time to explore, better to bring your own food, resto is good but is a bit pricey

Norman de Bellefeuille

A beautiful park with a beautiful view. If you hike, you're rewarded with a beautiful view of the hills on top of a lookout tower. However, even if you don't want to make the hike, you can have a beautiful view at the picnic tables

jean-philippe Vilpoux

Love this place! Make sure you reserve few months ahead!

Asieve Infrench

Beautiful Canadian National Park!

Rick Constant

Great place, gorgeous views and wonderful hiking trails. Nice camping facilities!

Barry

Amazing sealife! We saw whales from the beach - hundreds of eider ducks, and many others. Aside from that, the fall colors (at the start of October) were stunning.

Jean-Marc Rechsteiner

Beautiful national park with super friendly staff. A must-see when driving through Gaspésie!

Van T

Amazing place with nice weather. Beautiful shoreline and wildlife!

AMANDA pan

One of the best national parks I have ever visited. Very beautiful and amazing natural place.

Noppadol Pringvanich

Some of the best views in Québec for sure. Fantastic amenities. Made many a breakfast from the cabin at cap bon ami on a windy morning. Wonderful.

Dustin Hermanns

A great place. Wish we had more time to spend.

Nora Iones

Great park, close to Gaspé

Jeanette Bartosik

Great views, worth the hike up the observation.

H ST

Beautiful location, but a bit short on things to do. Our campsite had moose poo right in the middle of it and the comfort station was out of order for most of our time there, so we had to walk to a neighbouring one. However, this is an incredible park for wildlife. In one day we saw moose, porcupines, a black bear and a couple of whales. Make the trek out to the end of the world (Bout du Monde) for some amazing views of the sea and whalespotting.

Alexander Xu

Very big park to see and explore! Beautiful national park. Many nice trails. Waterfall, cliff, wild and sea animals. You need at least three days to discover this amazing place ????????????❤️????????????

daniel zhang

Beautiful national park. Many nice trails. Waterfall, cliff, wild and sea animals.

Lanie Lida

great place

fatih şen

Went on the Grand-Grève hike. Was quite beautiful with several stops with little stories to go with the buildings and sites. My favorite wsd the general store and the memorial to all those families that were displaced for the park. The personal stories were sad and heartwarming.

Susan Robson

Saw whales first time in my life

Maggie Shao

It was a nice place for the camping, the bathroom and shower were super clean. But I preferred Carleton sur mer and Percé.

Elaine

A place for nature's lovers....

Bob Brogan

Great place to camp with the family. Camping lots are neat and tidy and the washrooms are extremely clean. Many amazing trails lined with nature and beautiful flowers. Powerful waves and breathtaking views of the ocean. 10/10 would recommend.

Grace Wiland

So much to see, such a beautiful place

Jeana Seo

Hard to think why anyone would not rate this place a 5 stars.

Mass drop

Beautiful!!!

Steve Ranni

This park is great and absolutely breathtaking! The staff were friendly and knowledgeable. My husband and I section hiked La Cretes to campsite # 2 (about 4km from the parking lot). It was a group camping experience. Pitching a tent is free, but using the lean to structure is $15.00 per night per person. There was not much room for multiple tents at this location. The hike to and from this site was very steep - elevation of 450m (also breathtaking). There is a small stream beside this site that is good enough to use with a water filter. Fort Ramsay was very interesting and the hike to lands end is a must!

Julia MacKinnon

Beautiful scenery lovely views... lots of trails snd side adventures for everyone.

Alex Whalen

Most amazing hike to see the most incredible landscape. The scenic lookout at the top was worth every bit of the necessary exersion required to make this climb to the lookout tower. It was a humbling experience to see the cape from so high. People from all over the world come to this hike. The park for camping is also good. Washrooms are clean.

S Rahman

Nice place with easy hikes and good views

Zohar Kuperman

Well managed park.

Marie-Soleil Daigneault

Beautiful hike along the St. Lawrence Gulf. You can see lots of dolphins, seals and sea birds. And if you are lucky you can see a whale too. Highly recommended trail in the National Forillon National Park. Don't forget to get down to see the Land's End Point

Adi Kuperman

Great national park, friendly staff, amazing medium difficulty hike and superb sight seeing

Marci Johnston

Great hiking - awesome view from the Mont Alban.

Wally

Beautiful National Park
