There are two main options available from the Baie-des-Rochers pier: to the south, the Anse de Sable trail and, to the north, the Coulée des mâts trail.

L’Anse de Sable is probably the most popular because of its main highlight: the beach. Considered one of the most beautiful beaches in Charlevoix (if not the most beautiful), it’s also one of the least crowded, since it can only be reached on foot. Part of the trail runs alongside a river lined with lovely waterfalls. Upon arrival at the beach, you’ll be greeted by a refreshing sensation, as the tip of the waterside park opens up ahead.

The Coulée des mâts trail offers staggering views of the bay. There are some magnificent lookouts along the way, and the first one is only a short distance from the parking lot. Since it’s covered, it makes for a great spot to enjoy a meal in the heart of an enchanting landscape.

The Baie-des-Rochers’ trails and infrastructure were restored a few years ago. This is evident in the new look of several installations.
