Reviews of Canyon Sainte-Anne (Zoo)

Eric Davis

Amazing place to visit. Lots of trails and different views of the canyon. Nature at it's finest. A must place to stop for a visit.

Absolutely stunning canyon, beautifully maintained! Canyon Sainte Anne is located about 30 min drive from Quebec City. The park offers view of a 75m big waterfall and several smaller ones, connected with suspension bridges. The park is family friendly, Air Canyon is an automated high speed chair that brings you to the middle of the canyon, for an incredible Bird’s eye view. There is also via ferrata that is available for additional fee, but definitely worth the price if you are of the adventure type. The park is even more beautiful in the fall, definitely worth to stop by!

1h of nice sightseeing, not so costly, i loved that :)

July 2021 an amazing destination that's worth the visit. At a cost of approximately $23 per adult and $17 per child with the cost of going on the zip line, this is well worth the visit. Parking is free. The zip line itself only lasts about 10 seconds and if you go early, there's a short line. The zip line stops just above the canyon at about 10 storeys high for a brief moment while you take in the scenery. The park is well maintained. Stairs have handrails and pathways are paved with gravel or asphalt. Lots of suspension bridges and a path that leads you around the canyon and past multiple bridges and look out points. Front entrance has washrooms, a picnic area, and a small playground for the younger kids. A great stop to past by. Your looking to spend about 2 to 2.5+ hours. If you need to wait at the zip line, add another 30 mins. Plan 3.5 hours if you plan to take things slow.

If you’ve got the time this is a fun little half day activity to do from Quebec City. The difficulty level for the trail is low and suitable for all ages. There is a $15 entrance fee.

The canyon was really beautiful and there is many views of the canyon along the path that you take. The price to come here is not that bad around $12 for an adult. However I do not suggest taking the air Canyon that's there. A) it's super expensive B) the ride is not long at all C) you go back and forth so you can't get off where the Canyon is. Other than that I do suggest the canyon and it's a must go place if you really like nature.

shruthi shekar

Breathtaking falls view .. absolutely loved it.. I would give all the stars.. !!

Dimitri Sterlin

Very nice place if you like outdoor activities and new adventures, you will enjoy it a lot there! I wasn't a big fan of rock climbing but now I understand why people like it!

Cathy Piesina

Loved this visit!!! The views were awesome, it is a wonderful place to bring your children/grandchildren. The ride is such a thrill!!! ????????

George Mikos

Really cool park and really close to Ste Anne de Beaupre. It takes about 1 hour to walk the whole park and there is a zip line

Elena Parseniuc

Must visit! Amazing nature plus activity for kids and adults. Air Canyon takes about 1 minutes of trip above the canyon, but you won't forget the impression. We'll come back for sure

Avery Opalka

Absolutely stunning views. A gorgeous spot to explore. The via ferrata experience was incredible. If you want the best views of the canyon, do the via ferrata. You get the opportunity to climb down into the canyon near the waterfall. It is very safe and even those who were afraid of heights seemed to enjoy it. It is rather reasonably priced. So much fun.

Rayan Ahyad

Well maintained mini hike place with beautiful views. Lots of parking. Friendly staff. Cool story to keep you engaged while walking. But I thought it was too short and also the zip line was closed. There's a playground for kids which is really cool.

Kris “Kris” Smith

Don't skip the zip line. IT WAS AMMAIZING ????

Malcolm Gurley

Well worth the visit. The views of waterfalls and chutes are wonderful as there are many look outs along the trails. There is a charge to get in and expect to be here for at least 2 hours. If you are up to it, there is a zipline that takes 2 people over the falls about 10 stories in the air.

mathew kavunkal Easo

Awesome place must visit

asma kamran

Usually Mount Morency takes up all the hype but this place is also worth visiting if you are in the area. The suspension bridges are very strongly built and don’t shake up while walking. There are also viewing points to view the canyon along the track if you are not interested or don’t like the suspension bridges. The tickets are reasonable and the views are absolutely amazing. There is also a play park for the kids at the property.

Hugo Lopez

Interesting viewpoint when hiking the trail in Gaspésie park.take the time to read the details in the post next to the viewpoint. Interesting the history of how this rock was formed.

Gabriel Balaban

Nature at it's best, very well maintained paths and bridges that enhances the experience. Great half a day adventure!

Maurizio Covatta

What a place! Gorgeous sceneries. 3 suspended bridges. Full of activities to do. And most of all a majestic waterfall

maria gomez

Amazing views of three waterfall, story readings for kids at each stop, air Canyon was over to soon, missing the zipline from my last visit. Facilities and resting place is mind blowing, very esthetic.

Ashly Rodrigues

Beautiful wall with two nice bridges over a magnificent waterfall. Not expensive and family friendly. It's nice to have the short hike option as well as the descent to the bottom of the Canyon. The zipline ride over the Canyon is the icing on the cake. Clean facilities and nice eating areas. Must see for all.

Nali Yan

The view from Pont Mestachibo is beautiful. Air Canyon is much stable than Zip Line, so you can enjoy the view more freely. If you travel to Québec City, you shouldn't miss both Basilica & Canyon of Sainte-Anne! I bet you feel something.

Iron

This is A beautiful place for watching maple leaves. It will be perfect if the admission fee could be lower.

Timo

that's worth to visit there. Parking is free. It’s great to go to hiking with beautiful waterfalls and mountains ! Nice staff too

Yair Hirschfeld

Nice place to visit. Well organized walking trail. You can spend an hour or 2. Few bridges you can walk on to get a nice view of the canyon and the water falls.

Nabil Jellali

Visiting this canyon it’s like a travel in the time and place. Really amazing and wild nature. Entrance fees $14,5

S. M.

Excellent place to experience La Belle France in North America. Great service and own (!!!) parking in the back. Great location. Lots of character. Did not like coffee and breakfast croissants but with lots of breakfast options around did not really matter. Git help with restaurant reservations ( best ones are hard to get to, book well in advance, we used Google maps- the most versatile as it's interplatform, and Android version even checks and shows restaurants with availability only).

Ari

It was a nice walk down the Canyon over nicely built bridges and sometimes paved walkways. Lots of sitting areas for a picnic, right by the river or in covered areas in case it rains. It was like catered hiking that was well marked and maintained. Lots of space and many great picturesque locations on platforms right by the river overlooking the falls.

Joey Peterpaul (NDN JOE , #ndnjoe)

Great Place to enjoy a Hike with the Family, we loved the trails, this was our first time here and I would recommend this for all ages. If you Love water falls this is a Breathtaking view from all points of the canyon. Price to get in, is a little high. Great Parking area, Picnic and large enough to accommodate a large group too. If you get a chance to Visit, I'm sure i will again, Check it out. Joe

Edel Lopez

Amazing place that worth to visit. Quebec is my new home and I’m impressed! I’m in love with natural places like this. Workers are trying to keep people distancing but really is in our hands to keep the virus away and also places open so respect the rules!!! Highly recommended and amazing!

Emily Chu

It was quiet close trip from Quebec City. We spent 2-3 hours here with our two boys. Even though we arrived in the morning, few tour buses visited with full of people. Many people were doing rock climbing and real zip lines. We did the zip line at the entrance, it was really short. Price was bit expensive. Overall we enjoyed visit here.

Shirley Cisneros-Coronel

Great great workout! Stunning hidden gem. Breathtaking and scary at the same time. I felt the fear of God on that suspension bridge. It was safe but you could feel the power of the rapids and hear the strength and roar. Fun little quest for kids but we couldn't get the app going to play along with Petraminis. Great family fun.

Olive

Try to come as early as possible -- that way you can get better photos and the lookouts aren't too crowded. Well-maintained paths; one side is very accessible-friendly, and the other is full of stairs. The zipline looked very short, does not offer any better views than crossing the bridge parallel to it.

Ron Hope

The AirCanyon is both terrifying and exhilarating! Great place for the kids and parents alike!!

Adrian B

Great out doors activities just a quick drive north of Quebec city Family friendly park with some a mazing waterfalls views

Yanyan Tsang

Very nice walk and the views are very beautiful.

Ewa Kubiak-Thornton

It’s a must see place when you in town. My kids and I loved it. I didn’t know they had rock climbing for kids as well around the falls I would definitely sign up next time when I have extra time. But sure is fun hike. Very awesome waterfall If you haven’t been try the air Canyon I am afraid of highest but did it with my kids. Glad to have my feet on the ground.

Suneet Jain

The trip to quebec city is in complete without visiting this place. You cannot miss the air canyon to have a nice view of water fall through the rocks and nice walk to enjoy fresh air of this amazing place which is full of rocks, densed trees and bridges.

Terry Enockson

Fantastic views, especially with the fall colors. Moderately easy 1-2 km walking trail to a number of well placed viewing spots.

Anthony Fauré

This place is so beautiful it hurts! Definitely take the Air canyon if you are ok being strapped to a superfast ski lift! I loved it and would do it again and again! There's a considerable amount of mild hiking involved. There is also one section that advises if you have a health condition that you may choose not to take part. I took part and the views were breathtaking!

Kim Parker

Do the canyon zip line, definitely worth the 30 seconds and $12!!! The scenery was breathtaking. Paths were easy to navigate. The last 167 steps is not suitable for dogs, steel stairs. The suspension bridges are not for the faint of heart...

Syed Mushtaq Ali

5 star rating for sure. 15$ for the tour 10$ for the zip line Free parking Tour will be finished in approximately 2 hours About 40 kms away from Main city You have a small restaurant in front of this place Beautiful place and biggest waterfalls that I have ever seen in Quebec city

Tashinga Mawema

Great way to spend the day just outside of Quebec city. The Air Canyon ride is a must try.

Milo A

Good easy hike on well maintained paths and bridges around the gorge and waterfall. Away from the falls, there is a picnic area and restrooms.

Peter Barnaby

Amazing spot! Great for an afternoon outing with the fam. Beautiful views and well maintained walking trails. The suspension bridges are not for the faint of heart. Staff were friendly and spoke both French and English.

Thomas Fischer

We'll worth the experience! They did an excellent job of getting you up close to the rushing water.

Armand Sayeed

WAY over priced for the hike and the air canon was only a few seconds long. The waterfall and canyon was nice to see.

Ryan Michaud

Amazing place. A lot of stairs to get back to the top from the bottom. Well worth it though.

regis kwong

A beautiful natural canyon for hiking and family activities. This is an enclosed area of the river with many waterfalls and beautiful hiking trails. There is a charge of $16 for adult to get in. If you want to have an areal view of the canyon, you can pay an extra $10 to ride an open cable car to get up to the hill. I prefer walk to get close encounter with nature. There are suspended bridges and lookout areas to see the waterfalls and the streams. Some lookouts are more challenging in getting there. The leaves are starting change creating a beautiful scenery in the canyon. Get down to the lowest point of lookout, you will be able to get a photo of the whole canyon waterfall. But prepare to do some climbing of stairs. So ware some comfortable cloths and a good pit hiking shoes.

shaza At

Very beautiful park . U should visit it and enjoy the magic of nature there.

Sushil Shekhar

Beautiful place for a small trip ????????

Rachel Tallman

Beautiful scenery, welcoming staff, and breathtaking falls! Wheelchair accessible to most parts of trails. Dog friendly! Definitely a must go if you're visiting Beaupre!

Elie Waitzer

Total gem! We visited in the summer and it was stunning. The “hike” referred to in other reviews is a paved pathway with stairs that takes you across three suspension bridges and eight observation decks. It is steep at parts but I think you’d be fine even with a stroller. Only thing to note is the “zip line” isnt really a zip line but an electric powered chairlift that zips you across the canyon for 45 seconds - super fun!

Irene Gedney

Lovely spot glad we did the air canyon ride rather than ziplining...don't know that i could have stepped onto spikes sticking out of mountain side

Erin Lefebvre (Lady_MaNiacal)

Amazing hike!! The waterfalls are beautiful and you don't have to hike too far to get to them. If you are going to go to the bottom bridge though, be prepared to climb a lot of stairs on the way back. I have asthma and it was quite the workout. I was definitely sweating by the end lol but I love nature walks so it was worth it to me.

Anna D. W.

Nice place to see once... Honestly after visiting three waterfalls parks, I believe this one is the less exciting... you have to pay to get in... please don’t buy the air canyon, the ride is less than minute: back in forward, not worth it extra $12 for the ride per person. The entrance fee for 2 adults was $28.

Unni James

Beautiful place to visit. Waterfall is amazing. Total walking distance is not that long. Be prepared to get wet if windy. To get to Bottom level bridge, lots of steps.

Michelle Lau

Such a stunning place to visit with lots to see! It is a very large area with many hiking trails and a beautiful waterfall! I wouldn't really say that the trails are for hiking as they are not that intense and it is paved. It is more like a nice nature walk. They also offer a ride similar to ziplining except you are seated in a two person seat. I spent around 2 hours here but could have spent all day but it started to rain and I had other things to do. It isn't too far out from Quebec City either, I think it only took me around 45 mins to get here from my hotel in Quebec City. This attraction is also good for most age groups, unless you have a physical disability as you do need to walk down then back up a medium sized hill in order to see the falls.

Athen B

Stunning view, but not worth the price you pay since it’s a 30 min in and out. I thought it would be a lot wider to explore. If you go here, plan it as a picnic, but not as a hike or a trail. Also, go in the morning before it gets packed with tourists since there isn’t a lot of space to move around and it can get frustrating. PS: Avoid the zipline, it’s really short and very basic. If you’ve ever been ziplining in your life, you will be incredibly underwhelmed. It might be a good entry level experience for kids, but that’s about it.

Mohammad Shafayet Islam

Second time visiting this place. Felt chills just like the first time. Had few kilometres of hiking as well. The thrilling moments were passing through the bridge but watching the fall tops everything.

Viraj Tamakuwala

It's got good views. Expect to spend a minimum of 1.5h for a full loop around. There are sufficient spots to rest and take photos.

Jim Deveau

Well worth the trip. If you have 3-4 hours to spare when in Quebec City, definitely go here. There is a nice walk with different things to look at, and the main loop over the canyon. So many great views. World class, for sure. It takes about 2 hours to comfortably see it all. Kind of hilly, but not too bad. If you can do stairs, you'll be OK. 100% would go back again.

Max Marlan

Amazing experience, neither the rain changed my mind

Nathalie D

Beautiful, a great place to go for a nice walk, or for the more adventurous an interesting rock climbing experience

Mohamad

Very nice falls and zip line

Melissa Schmidt

Great place to see a wonderful waterfall and not to strenuous to complete the hike. Great little trail with points of interest all along the way.

Jagadeesh Kumar Madhavan

This is definitely an exciting place to visit. The view points for the falls were top notch. Air canyon is a must try, they stop it at one point and let you watch from the top and that is the best. Please don't miss this spot if you are visiting Quebec.. 5 stars and more...

Анастасия Епифанова

I give 2 stars for great view. But the rest is terrible. The price is too high for 15min walk. Bathrooms are dirty (and I mean very dirty).

Thomas Papiest

Very nice. When you book your time slot online,it is only for admission to canyon at that time. The air canyon ride you must line up. 1st come 1st on.We waited 1hr.20min.to get on. Fun ride. Only 2 people at a time. The canyon hike itself was very good.

I was there on Aug 28th around 4pm and there was a very rude staff of yours. Her hair is long on dreadlocks with some purple color. I was on the bridge and at 4:15 pm she told me that I should be at the gate already in 15 minutes. I believe there are also other people she talked too same thing.And of course I just came in so I need to take pictures and I am aware of the time of your closing. And this is the rudest part that she did I saw her again by the deck which is the last deck I am in. She yelled and said you need to leave now pointing her finger away. She did not leave until I left. that was only 4:45 pm. She has no manners at all. You should put an attention to this staff. This is not the right place to bring her problems at work. I dont normally leave a review if this is not important. But if she do this again to your customers it is not good for your business.Now all I can remember in this place is that rude staff.

Nathaemma Delatour

Beautiful hike worth doing. They have a story to follow by going to all the plateaus that’s enjoyable for all ages.

Jonathan

The walk is about 30 minutes long. We tried the "zipline" experience and it was about 20 seconds long... Waste of money. We had a better trail behind out cottage that was free.

Alberto Morais

surprise surprise. I am not a hiking guy. trail is easy. no insects. nothing. view is spectacular

Taera Bliss

Great hike, lovely waterfalls. Just don't waste you're money on the silly ride.

SJ Lee

Friendly Staff, Good 1-hour walk around to experience the beautiful Canyon. Too bad the Air Canyon was down when I visited.

Nasrin Tahmasebi

We have a lot of fun , very safe and beautiful nature????

Hanna B

We did the seat zip line. Will only do it once for the experience. Not again. Expensive and long wait fir a 10 sec thrill. The walk through the parc and the crossing of different types of bridges was exciting and joyful. Beautiful place

Gabriel Antenucci

A nice drive if staying in Quebec City. About an hour away. The zip line was fun but a long line as only 2 people can go at a time. Wonderful walk available through the scenery and the waterfall was a nice view.

Robert Vincent

Nice hike and some pretty views of the falls. If you are afraid of heights then wouldn't advise going here as there are high suspension bridges over the falls. Somewhat expensive given you really only need to spend 1-1.5 hrs to walk the whole thing relatively slowly.

Stephen (Stevo)

Highlights: Air Canyon and Petraminis. The 10 second air canyon ride is great and is a must do (at first I thought it’s regular ziplining; in fact it’s a 2-seater ride). Thx to the Petraminis story (8 chapters in total, and placed around the park), my kids were eager to finish the whole park without any troubles.

Gerry Paxton

This may have been the highlight of our visit to the Sainte-Anne area. The views are breathtaking and the Air Canyon ride is exhilarating and stunning. The trails are well signed and clean, and give you a great opportunity to see the canyon from all levels and sides. It was an experience that will stay with us forever, and don't miss the small trail walk though the stone stories treasure hunt. Wear you comfortable walking shoes and have a great experience.

mous mous

Very nice place to take a walk specially on the suspended bridge and see the waterfalls

S Rahman

I have always went to Mont-Morency but this place is only 20-25 from Mont-Morency and offers spectacular views as well!

Tazmir Nahar

The place is breathtaking ????

Sam Karb

Wow! What a beautiful natural site! Ideally for a walk in nature.. there is waterfalls a d a lot of trees. The place is kept clean and there are a lot of activities like climbing and hiking! If you are in Quebec City area you have to visit this place, I’m going back for sure! ????

Jismon Kurians

Breathtaking views of steep rocks and water winds through it. Nice Suspension bridges a little scary but very good experience ????. A small fall and hiking trial is also there. Plus a zip line ride. Hiking trail is not that great.

Bharani Kolla

Absolutely breathtaking and beautiful ! A must visit if you are planning a trip to Quebec City. Don't forget to try Air Canyon though the total duration is only for less than one minute. Worth spending a complete day here just for brilliant natural scenic views.

mustafa

It is an amazing place really wonderful

Nathalia Zuñiga

Gorgeous place, the zip line is incredible! Amazing experience! Beautiful falls and nature!
