Unforgettable Outdoor Activities

To experience Gaspésie is to encounter an untamed land where sea, cliffs, boreal forests, and rivers shape a spectacular landscape. At Auberge Griffon Aventure, each day is a chance to be amazed, to challenge yourself, and to taste freedom. Our selection of outdoor activities in Gaspésie is for adventurers, nature lovers, and sports enthusiasts alike — all in a safe environment led by passionate guides.

Canyoning: Pure Adrenaline in Gaspésie

One of the inn’s flagship activities, canyoning is a unique Gaspesian adventure. Suit up in a wetsuit, follow the stream through a rocky gorge, rappel down waterfalls, slide down natural slides, and leap into clear pools — this is canyoning, Griffon Aventure-style.

Whether you’re a beginner or more experienced, the activity is guided by certified instructors in a wild canyon near Forillon Park. Each descent is a sensory adventure: direct contact with the rock, the refreshing water, and shouts of joy echoing through the cliffs. It’s one of Gaspésie’s rare experiences that combines adrenaline, immersion in nature, and team spirit.

You’ll leave soaked, smiling… and hooked.

Sea Fishing: Experience Local Traditions

For fans of more traditional activities, sea fishing offers an immersion in the daily life of coastal folk. Whether you’re a beginner or seasoned angler, go on an excursion with a local guide to learn line and trap fishing techniques.

It’s an authentic way to discover the Gaspesian lifestyle, listen to sea stories, understand marine cycles — and maybe bring home a freshly caught dinner. Far from classic tourist circuits, it’s a slow-paced, genuine activity deeply rooted in local culture.

Forillon Cruises: Cliffs & Coastal Views

Treat yourself to a coastal cruise to see Forillon Park from a new perspective. Depart from the nearby dock for a boat ride featuring dramatic cliffs, impressive capes, and beaches inaccessible by foot.

This quiet yet awe-inspiring activity is ideal for photographers, families, or those wanting to soak in the vastness of the St. Lawrence. As you follow the coastline, a passionate guide will share the geological and human history of Forillon. It’s the perfect way to relax and be amazed — far from daily distractions.

Sea Kayaking: Explore the Gaspesian Coast

Paddle silently along the water, in sync with your strokes. Sea kayaking is one of the most magical ways to explore the region’s rugged coastline. Departing from Anse-au-Griffon or the beaches of Forillon Park, you’ll glide past dramatic cliffs, spot seabirds, and maybe even encounter a curious seal.

Whether solo, tandem, or with a local guide, kayaking creates a deep connection with the elements. Far from engines and crowds, you’ll enjoy the peaceful St. Lawrence, golden evening light, and salty sea spray.

Hiking & Wildlife Watching

The Forillon region is a paradise for hikers. Numerous trails, suited to all levels, wind through mixed forests, along rocky capes, or across peaceful valleys. On foot, you’ll discover typical Canadian Shield flora and, with a bit of luck, spot a fox, a porcupine, or even a moose around a bend.

Just a few kilometers from the inn, the Graves Trail or Mount Saint-Alban offer stunning views of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Binoculars in hand, you can also try birdwatching, as several rare species nest in the area.

A Committed, Friendly, and Deeply Human Inn

For over fifteen years, Auberge Griffon Aventure has been more than just a place to stay: it’s an eco-conscious living space, a meeting place, and a collective project rooted in Gaspésie. Each building was built from reclaimed materials — driftwood, old Gaspesian barns — with the intent to preserve ecosystems, minimize infrastructure impact, and reflect the territory’s raw beauty.

Long before sustainability became a trend, we chose environmental and community commitment: responsible water management, short supply chains, ethical purchasing, supporting local farmers, and even offering educational content through workshops and conferences at the inn. Our vision of tourism is rooted in shared experience, respect for life, and collective learning.

But what truly gives Griffon Aventure its soul is its people. We cultivate a warm atmosphere where the campfire becomes a living room, the travelers’ kitchen a place of exchange, and the Bar-bar, our driftwood bar-terrace, a vibrant social hub. Local craft beer, morning coffee with a view, music, board games, hammocks, a library, quirky costumes, and impromptu pétanque matches: every moment here is a chance to connect, laugh, and slow down.

Whether you’re here to recharge or push your limits, you’ll leave with more than photos: shared memories, a breath of fresh air, and maybe a new perspective on life.
