Location Map
Description
The La Plantation area, located in the Portneuf Regional Natural Park in Saint-Alban, is a lodging zone distinguished by a large experimental plantation of white pines dating back to the 1900s. This place is popular for its calm atmosphere, shaded trails, and access to the Sainte-Anne River.
Accommodation options include:
- Ready-to-camp (Imago Tents): Hexagonal glamping-style tents, insulated and on wooden platforms, equipped with beds, a portable stove, and basic kitchen equipment.
- Forest camping (without services): Rustic sites under the tall pines, suitable for tents and small self-contained recreational vehicles.
No individual connections for water, electricity, or sewage are available. The area has a modern sanitary block with toilets and hot showers. Running water is accessible, but it is recommended to check its potability.
The Plantation Trail, an easy hiking route, winds under the pines and along the river, connecting this area to the Gorges.
Respect nature and the sites, leave nothing behind, and be discreet.
