Parc des Montagnes Noires de Ripon

Nature on a grand scale

Ripon's Parc des Montagnes Noires covers over 800 acres of forest, offering total immersion in a wilderness punctuated by breathtaking panoramas. Its highest point, Mont Grand-Pic at 426 meters, offers breathtaking views from its belvedere and observation tower. It's a must-see for lovers of nature and vast horizons.

Open year-round, the park is a veritable playground for outdoor enthusiasts. In summer, its trails are ideal for hiking. In winter, they become ideal for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and tobogganing.

Mountain bikers will also find plenty to do here, with several kilometers of trails of varying levels. The more adventurous can take on the challenge of the bike skills park, located behind the Stéphane-Richer welcome chalet (building #44). This course is open to ages 8 and up. Helmets must be worn on all mountain bike trails and in the bike park.

To extend the experience, the park offers chalets and a reception hall for rent, ideal for a stay in the heart of nature or a special event. Dogs are welcome, provided they are kept on a leash.

Accessible from dawn to dusk, Ripon's Parc des Montagnes Noires promises unforgettable moments, whatever the season.
