Access to all 24 of Quebec’s provincial parks is free Saturday.
Forests, Wildlife and Parks Minister Luc Blanchette invited Quebecers to take advantage of the opportunity to discover or rediscover their natural heritage.
The free annual event particularly aims to encourage young people to develop an interest in nature and the outdoors.
Activities offered include hiking, canoeing and cycling.
The provincial parks network includes nearly 7,000 square kilometres of protected territory.
