An early morning shuttle will take you from Tadoussac to the trailhead in Saguenay St. Lawrence Marine Park on the north shore of the fjord. You'll join the trail and hike back to Tadoussac, enjoying spectacular views of the area.

From Tadoussac, you'll drive about three hours back to Quebec City, stopping along the way at Café Chez Nous in the charming town of La Malbaie. You'll be free to explore Quebec City for the remainder of the day before joining your group for a farewell dinner.
