Well worth a visit

We spent a couple of hours walking the trails of the Parc des Chutes. They're human-made "chutes" for Hydro Quebec, but that didn't take away from the strength of the main chute, or the beauty of the trails. There are about 4 kilometres of trails,...More

Make sure the falls have water!

Interesting place with two viewing spots. One is at the top of the falls near the top of the hydro dam, the other is at the bottom of the falls. There are some walking trails associated with the park that is around the falls and...More

Nice park and falls

You can easily see the fall without going hiking. However, you should bring comfortable shoes and go through the forest. Longest hike is an hour.

Nice trail system from easy to difficult

Just so you know, most of the falls are artificial (provided by a hydroelectric facility) but impressive and fun nonetheless. Good system of trails, marked from easy to difficult. Good place to stop and stretch your legs if you're traveling along Route 20.

5 minute stop

We love to see water falls. quite honestly, this was nothing special and warranted only a 5 minute stop. Nice that they had clean bathrooms in power plant next to falls.

Les chutes is the best!

I've been to les chutes many times over the years enroute from the Maritimes to Ontario. It's a must-see stop in Riviere du Loup! It's a great place for a stroll, hike or picnic. And where else can you walk the catwalk over top of...More

Nice spot for pics

Stopped here to see the falls and get some pics. Nice and easy access to get to the falls. I was with people who can't walk very far so this was really nice. It looked like there was a trail though, if you wanted to...More
