Swimming

Swimming at Les Refuges Perchés

4 docks at the treehouses are reserved just for our guests. You can swim from there, or from the main dock near the reception pavilion, or from any of the hiking trails. Pedal boats are also great to swim off in the middle of the lake.

Fishing

Fishing lake at Les Refuges Perchés

Lakes to fish on! Fishing in our park is only done from a canoe or a rowboat, never from the shore or the docks. Bring your own provincial fishing permit and equipment. Electric motors are allowed, and there is no fishing during winter.

If you rent a rowboat, you can row to the end of the lake, then take a short walk to Renversi lake and unlock another rowboat there. Guests are not allowed to portage our canoes to Renversi lake, nor to Lac à la Truite, which is too shallow and has a fragile ecosystem.

See the Boat rental section for how to get a boat.

Boat rental

Canoe rental at Les Refuges Perchés

You can rent canoes with Les Refuges Perchés. We have one canoe available for rent per treehouse; a 2nd canoe rental is possible on a first come, first served basis at check-in (minimum quantities available). Lifejackets and paddles are included.

Parc Éco-Laurentides has rowboats, paddleboards, pedalos and kayaks for rent. Personal boats must be washed prior to using them on the park’s lakes. This is to stop the spread of invasive plant species which can seriously harm our pristine lakes.

Advance reservations with Parc Éco-Laurentides are recommended during high season. Contact the park directly to reserve: 1-866-326-9072.

You’re welcome to bring your own kayak, canoe or paddleboard. Your boat must be cleaned beforehand, or use the cleaning station at Parc Éco-Laurentides. Electric motors are allowed.
