Les sentiers de la Lune

Rapide-Danseur, La Sarre et l'Abitibi-Ouest

Ten rural parks are spread along two trails:  the Promenade Trail in the village and the Lune Trail, which is 6 km further. Each park features a bench and an information display related to the park's theme. The Lune Trail passes through the Red Maple Park, covered with a forest of this species. At Belvédère Park, the trail climbs a small mountain and offers a view of Lake Duparquet and the surrounding area. The Erratic Block Park showcases a block left behind by glacial movement. In the Vieille école Park, you can find the foundations of a one-room schoolhouse from the 1930s-1940s. There are also the Grenouillière Park and the Esker Park. Additionally, you can walk along a section of the old Detour Trail, which crosses a wooded area of quaking aspens and spruces.
