A land of 50 hectares, with many crossing paths decorated with benches and picnic tables. The first path leads to the St. Lawrence River and allows visitors to discover the island's interior, its woodlands and cropland, in a journey sprinkled with poetry. The second path leads to the South to the center of Île d'Orléans, where is a small maple grove of yesteryear with its traditional sugar shack.

Located outdoors, trails let visitors discover the island's interior, its woodlands and cropland, in a journey sprinkled with poetry.
