Parks Canada Pursues its Investments in Forillon National Park
January 29, 2014 - Gaspé (Québec) - Parks Canada
Parks Canada is well on the way to finishing major upgrading work in the Cap-des-Rosiers harbour area in Forillon National Park. This $1.8 million investment will serve to revitalize and enhance the park’s North sector, which is destined to become a major pole in the presentation of natural heritage through memorable visitor experiences.
The objective of this upgrading project is two-fold. To begin with, it will contribute to preserving and breathing new life into this harbour, for the benefit of local fishers and recreational boaters. Secondly, it will help enhance the experience provided to visitors of the park’s North sector by fostering interaction with fishers and creating an inviting setting.
The Cap-des-Rosiers harbour will thus be ready to play host to visitors and fishers for the 2014 summer season.
