Lac-Témiscouata National Park

Lac-Témiscouata National Park (Parc national du Lac-Témiscouata, pronounced [paʁk nɑsjɔnal dy lak temiskwata]) is a provincial park located in Quebec, Canada south of the Saint Lawrence River, near the border with New Brunswick. This national park, created on November 18, 2009, is divided into two parts, one to the northeast of Lake Témiscouata (157.2 km2, including the Squatec and Saint-Juste sectors) and the other to the southeast (18.1 km2, Dégelis sector). The park's physical and ecological characteristics make it representative of the Monts Notre-Dame natural region (21, 720 km2), the only natural region in southern Quebec not yet represented by a national park at the time of its creation. As well as bordering Lake Témiscouata, one of the most beautiful in the region, this territory includes several smaller lakes and is crossed by a major canoeable river, the Touladi, where dwarf whitefish can be found. In terms of wildlife, the park is home to the largest white-tailed deer population in the Lower St. Lawrence. Finally, in terms of culture, the park boasts a high concentration of Amerindian archaeological sites, among the oldest in Quebec. Grey Owl also lived here for almost 2 years.
