Rivière aux Rats meanders through forested areas in Saguenay, providing a serene backdrop for outdoor enthusiasts. Hiking trails follow the river's course, passing through mixed woods where you might spot beavers, ducks, and songbirds. The area is less developed than other parks, offering a quiet escape for nature lovers. In autumn, the foliage along the riverbanks turns vibrant shades of red and gold, making it a picturesque destination for photographers and hikers alike.
