A nice, easy site to learn canyoning in the Vallée Bras-du-Nord! From the Accueil Shannahan n area, the 45-minute approach hike takes you over the Bras-du-Nord river footbridge, through the yurt village and slowly up to the start of the waterfalls. You'll make four descents of varying heights (12, 20, 12 and 10 metres) in a stream that leaps down into the valley. The first two waterfalls are panoramic, while the third reveals the mystery of Easter Island...

An unforgettable day begins with a canoe trip across a magnificent lake. A steep, hour-long ascent leads to the summit of the descent: a series of waterfalls with a 100-metre drop! Five to six rappels will amaze you, including a unique 50-metre descent. The view from the top is such that all the local angels come to admire the lake in its mountain setting. The technical level is easy, but the vertical routes are breathtaking.
You'll have to use your vehicle to drive a dozen kilometers along a dirt road in the Batiscan-Neilson Zec, and pay access fees.

Experience a vertical adventure in the famous Delaney Falls by moonlight! This is a very scenic and sensational excursion for those who want to play cliff hangers. You might get a little wet on the way down, but more importantly, you'll experience the roar of the waterfall in a great atmosphere! To start, there's an easy one-hour hike on the official Vallée Bras-du-Nord trails. You'll have the chance to do two guided abseils overlooking Delaney Falls.
