Chase ghosts and travel through time
Get ready for an unusual adventure with Fantom: The Hunt. Equipped with detection goggles, you’ll make your way through the Pabos archeological site with the help of augmented reality technology unique to Quebec in search of spirits that haunt the site.
Available during the day and in the evening, The Hunt will take you on a fascinating voyage across time. Throughout your quest, you’ll explore stories from Indigenous and Basque people, French settlers and English soldiers that shaped this region’s history. In this original activity, historical learning meets imagination.
A past that comes to light, one hint at a time
History leaves many traces…will you be able to read them? In different interactive activities, Mission: Archeology! invites you to dive into the history of Gaspésie and Quebec in a fun and immersive way. By observing the site and searching the paths, you’ll try to solve the mysteries of the land and its inhabitants. A thrilling activity where your curiosity and analytical eye will be tested, and where each discovery brings you that much closer to the secrets of the past.
Immerse yourself in the water and its legends
Dive into adventure: the power of water takes on a new dimension in the immersive activity URA: A Celebration of Water. At the heart of the forest and on the shores of the ocean, Lamia, a mythical guardian inspired by Basque traditions, will guide you on the path of the water. She will entrust you with the keys to eight stations spread along this approximately-1km circuit. At every step, the water will reveal secrets related to the flora and fauna, the wrecks, lagoons and coastal landscapes that shape the region. It’s a sensory experience that will forever change your understanding of water!
