Description


La Vérendrye Wildlife Reserve (Québec, Canada) La Vérendrye wildlife reserve is one of the largest reserves in the province of Quebec, Canada, covering 13,615 square kilometres of contiguous land and lake area (Assinica wildlife reserve is the largest in the province, but its territory is broken up in four non-contiguous parts). It is named after Pierre Gaultier de Varennes, sieur de La Vérendrye, a French-Canadian explorer. Located 180 kilometres (110 mi) north of Ottawa (Canada’s capital), it is traversed from south to north by Route 117. With more than 4000 lakes and rivers and two huge reservoirs (Cabonga and Dozois), the wilderness territory is a venue of choice for outdoor enthusiasts. In addition to hunting and fishing, it also offers the opportunity to practice wilderness camping or canoe camping on more than 800 kilometres (500 mi) of interconnecting canoe routes. Two First Nation communities are found within the boundaries of the wildlife reserve: Kitcisakik on Great Victoria Lake and Lac-Rapide on Cabonga Reservoir. La Vérendrye Reserve is a popular park for outdoor activities in all seasons. In the winter, snowmobiling can be done on trails through the park. In the spring there are whitewater rivers to canoe, in particular the Gens de Terre River. In the summer it is a great place for fishing, hiking, swimming, and canoe camping. In the autumn, hunting is permitted. Popular game animals include moose and white-tailed deer (black bear hunting in the spring). Permits and payment of fees are required for any of these activities. Le Domaine is the community along Route 117 where most of the park services are concentrated. Here permits, fuel, and food can be obtained. La Vérendrye's landscape is typical of the Canadian Shield. The main tree species include Black Spruce, White Spruce, Jack Pine, Eastern White Pine, Red Pine, and White Birch. There are over 40 species of mammals including moose, white-tailed deer, bear, wolf, fox, beaver, hare, and over 150 species of birds including Spruce Grouse and Ruffed Grouse. Fishing...Walleye, northern pike, lake trout (salmon trout), smallmouth bass, and lake sturgeon. A few bodies of water, in the southern part of the reserve, contain brook trout (speckled trout). ________________________ Réserve Faunique La Vérendrye (Québec, Canada) La réserve faunique La Vérendrye est située dans la MRC de La Vallée-de-la-Gatineau dans la région de l'Outaouais et dans la MRC de La Vallée-de-l'Or, en Abitibi-Témiscamingue, entre Grand-Remous et Louvicourt. Le territoire est un parc de conservation qui fait partie du réseau des réserves fauniques du Québec gérées par la Société des établissements de plein air du Québec. Le paysage de La Vérendrye est typique du Bouclier canadien. Les principales essences sont l'épinette noire, l'épinette blanche, le pin gris, le pin blanc, le pin rouge et le bouleau blanc. Il existe plus de 40 espèces de mammifères dont l'orignal, le cerf de Virginie, l'ours, le loup, le renard, le castor, le lièvre, et plus de 150 espèces d'oiseaux dont le Tétras et la gélinotte huppée. Pêche ... doré, brochet, touladi (truite grise), achigan à petite bouche, et l'esturgeon jaune et plus encore. Quelques plans d'eau, dans la partie sud de la réserve, contiennent l'omble de fontaine (truite mouchetée). Doté du statut de réserve faunique depuis 1979, ce territoire d'une superficie de 13 615 km2 est toujours un lieu de rendez-vous privilégié pour les amateurs de plein air. On y retrouve plus de 4 000 lacs et rivières et deux immenses réservoirs : Cabonga et Dozois. En plus de la chasse et de la pêche, la réserve offre la possibilité de pratiquer le camping sur des sites aménagés ou rustiques ou encore le canot-camping sur plus de 2 000 km de circuits. Deux localités amérindiennes, celles de Kitcisakik ou Grand-lac-Victoria et de Lac-Rapide se retrouvent à l'intérieur des limites de la réserve faunique.
