About Kamouraska:
|
Kamouraska is the sport climbing Mecca in Quebec. There are 100 routes completely bolted for great climbing of all levels. You have to pay 6$/day or 50$/year to climb there. The site is taken care of by the climbing federation of Quebec and the SEBKA. The cliffs are on private property, please behave!
The rock in kamouraska is unique in Quebec. It's a mix of granite and quartz (orthoquartzite) which makes for a unique rock climbing experience. An added note: the view is just spectacular from the top of the routes. Definitely an added bonus.
