Oniro at Omega Park
A poetic walk in the heart of nature
Imagine a walk of about an hour, under the trees, accompanied by light projections, original music, and the voices of storytellers. It is in this enchanting setting that the audience follows the story of Oniro, a young wolf separated from his pack by a forest fire. Lost, he wanders through the night and has unusual encounters that will lead him to resilience and self-discovery.
The one-kilometer route is divided into 17 carefully orchestrated scenes. Each one reveals a facet of the dream, sometimes mysterious, sometimes luminous, often moving. The narration, carried by familiar voices such as Guylaine Tremblay, Vincent-Guillaume Otis, Mylène Mackay, Raymond Cloutier, and Vincent Leclerc, brings this universal animal tale to life.
A grandiose and unifying work
Oniro is the result of an exceptional collaboration. More than 50 Quebec artists and artisans contributed their talent to this $5.8 million project. Its ambition is as much artistic as it is touristic: to create a moment suspended in time where young and old alike can reconnect with nature, imagination, and the invisible bonds that unite all forms of life.
As Michel Lemieux himself says:
"Since the dawn of time, we humans have dreamed every night. What a surprise to learn that animals dream too. The inspiration for this creation comes from the desire to explore what unites us with animals, while inspiring wonder and humility in the face of nature."
Oniro is therefore much more than just a nighttime stroll. It is a sensitive and artistic meditation, an ode to the mysteries of life and the power of dreams.
A new dimension for Omega Park
Already renowned for its educational mission, its free-roaming animals, and its unique accommodations, Parc Oméga is adding Oniro, an immersive cultural experience for all audiences.
Practical information
- Duration of the tour: approximately 60 minutes
- Outdoors: good weather, bad weather, and accessible year-round
This new attraction aims to draw 50,000 additional visitors per year, consolidating Parc Oméga as one of the major tourist attractions in the Outaouais region. Easily accessible—just 90 minutes from Montreal and 45 minutes from Gatineau—it is becoming a destination of choice for families, immersive art enthusiasts, and tourists seeking unique experiences.
A walk that echoes
The project partners emphasize how much Oniro is a collective adventure. For H2Émotion, it is an emotional work to be told, a story that combines creativity and expertise. For co-author Denis Morin, it is the trees themselves that tell the story, in a forest where everything is interconnected. Benjamin Vallée, Executive Director of Parc Oméga, speaks of magic and enchantment, values that fit perfectly with the park's universe.
Oniro answers a simple but powerful question: what if animals dreamed, what would they tell us? The answer, conveyed by this nocturnal experience, is sensory, poetic, and universal.
Extend the magic
After following in Oniro's footsteps, why not extend your stay? Omega Park offers several unique accommodations : panoramic chalets, pods, ready-to-camp tents, and glass-walled lodges near the wolves, allowing you to sleep to the rhythm of the forest. On site, the Omega Restaurant OmegaBon welcomes you with delicious dishes made from local ingredients.
