Journey past cliffs carved by glaciers



  • 03 day paddle along the Saguenay Fjord
  • 10000 year-old glaciers
  • 76 fish species plus minke and fin whales
Summer in Quebec's Saguenay region brings the scent of sea and forest as you dip your paddle into deep, mythic waters and feel time ripple out before you. Carved by 65,000 year-old glaciers and stretching more than 100 km (62 mi), the Saguenay Fjord is where rugged cliffs and wildlife meet the sea and spellbinding Saguenay River. Paddle one of the world’s longest fjords, alongside cliffs forged in the last ice age. Listen to waves lapping and gently rocking your kayak as you paddle past small villages on the river banks. Stop, let your kayak drift awhile, lift your paddles and you might see peregrine falcons, loons, or fin whales and humpbacks. If you're really lucky, you might even spot a beluga’s white back or hear the “pssshh!” of a minke whale’s breath.
