Kuururjuaq National Park is a mystical place of rugged terrain, stretching from the sea to the towering peaks at the northern tip of the Quebec-Labrador Peninsula. The Inuit name for this region, Torngait, means “place inhabited by spirits”. Mount D’Iberville, the highest peak in eastern Canada at 1,646 metres, and the Koroc River, which rises in the majestic Torngat Mountains and flows 160 km from turquoise waters to Ungava Bay in a wide valley shaped by the passage of glaciers, make up the grandiose landscapes of this magnificent region.
The Koroc is ideal for whitewater sports. It’s also an ideal way to reach the many archaeological sites that dot its course. Inuit culture is omnipresent, from hiking guides to traditional wilderness experiences, including the famous Tupik tent, which you’ll learn to pitch in the communities you visit.
Summer and winter alike, you can enjoy long-distance hiking and camping on foot, snowshoes or Nordic skis, as well as fishing, canoe-camping, rock-climbing, dog-sledding, snowmobiling and much more. Muskoxen and caribou can also be seen passing through.
