Platform 1

The panoramix

Located less than a 3 minute walk from the summit chalet, the toilets and the observation tower, this platform gives an exceptional view of the valley of the giants and the backcountry. Its large size allows to install a 4-6 person tent easily.

Dimensions: 740 cm x 420 cm

 

Platform 3

The tundra

Solitary and boreal; this is the feeling you will get once you settle in. Its south-western orientation gives you an incredible view of our backcountry area and the sunsets. It can accommodate a tent of 2 to 4 people. The chalet and the toilets are a 5 minute walk away.

Dimensions: 420 cm x 420 cm

Platform 5

The fjordelaise

 

Platform 2

Le perchoir

Perched on the side of a rock, this platform offers a breathtaking view of the Mont Edouard backcountry. It is also close to the chalet and the toilets. Smaller in size, it is perfect for a two-person tent.

Dimensions: 470 cm x 280 cm

 

Platform 4

The sunset

With its western exposure, the sunset promises to offer sunsets that will make an impression on your summer! However, this platform is more exposed to the prevailing mountain wind, so you must take the proper precautions to anchor your tent. It can accommodate a 2 person tent. The chalet and the toilets are a 7 minute walk away.

Dimensions: 420 cm x 310 cm

 

The fjordelaise platform is a little jewel nestled with an incredible view of Anse-Saint-Jean and the Saguenay fjord. You will come back for sure! It can accommodate a 2-person tent. The chalet and the toilets are a 7 minute walk away.

Dimensions: 420 cm x 300 cm

Instructions and Guidelines.

  • You must carry your proof of purchase with you at all times. Please present proof of your reservation to our agent upon request, either directly from your phone or by presenting a printed copy of your reservation. The attendant may ask you to provide additional proof, such as photo ID and/or the credit card with which the purchase was made.

  • You can access the site identified on your reservation directly from 3:00 p.m. onwards.

  • You must vacate the space by 11:00 a.m. on the morning of your departure, as the platforms are available to the public between 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.

  • Access to the platforms is done by your own means. We suggest that you use the S21 trail and the Vertiges (all well indicated) from the main chalet of the resort.

  • The platforms are on the mountainside and exposed to the wind. It is important to consult the weather forecast before your departure. Prepare your outing well by bringing the necessary equipment for a wilderness camping trip. In case of emergency or bad weather, take refuge in the summit chalet and call the emergency numbers for assistance.
