To make the most of it, take a look at our five outing ideas in Quebec and Ontario that will leave you happily pleased over the long Labor Day and Thanksgiving weekends.<\/strong>\r\n\r\nTake a look at our 8 ideas for outdoor activities to do this fall:\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li>Ascent of the Acropole-des-Draveurs<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Night in a yurt near the Wolf Trail<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Bike ride in the Eastern Townships<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Glamping stay in Estrie and Mont\u00e9r\u00e9gie<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Treehouse getaway<\/li>\r\n \t<li>View of the colourful landscapes<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Rideau Canal Kayak Tour<\/li>\r\n \t<li>Salmon watching in Owen Sound<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<h3><strong>1. Ascend the Dizzying Acropole-des-Draveurs in Charlevoix<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-15211\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/blog\/app\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Acropole-des-Draveurs_etienne-delorieux-A_WQGtec7L4-unsplash-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"Acropole des draveurs\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" \/>\r\n\r\nTake your time. Climbing the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sepaq.com\/pq\/hgo\/annexes\/acropole-draveurs-renseignements-importants.dot?language_id=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Acropole-des-Draveurs trail<\/a> is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful hikes in Quebec, but reaching the summit is not easy. The 10-kilometer trail takes about five hours to complete. Watch for the maximum departure time so you don't miss your chance to see the place. Once at the top, you can admire the panoramic views of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sepaq.com\/pq\/hgo\/index.dot?language_id=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hautes-Gorges-de-la-Rivi\u00e8re-Malbaie National Park<\/a>, some of the highest walls to the east of the Rocky Mountains, magnificent landscapes and impressive elevations.\r\n\r\nThis hike is for relatively experienced walkers and S\u00e9paq recommends bringing at least two liters of water per person and wearing hiking boots, as the trails are uneven and a pair of sneakers or sandals is not suitable. Also, it's cooler at the top, so <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/blog\/layering-the-art-of-staying-warm-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bet on a good layering system<\/a> made up of base layers, a shell and a coat.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">[stag_button url=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/outdoor-gear\/bags\/hydration\/hydration-packs\" style=\"orange\" size=\"medium\" type=\"normal\" target=\"_blank\" icon=\"\" icon_order=\"before\"]Hydration Bags[\/stag_button][stag_button url=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/outdoor-gear\/hiking\/hiking-boots-shoes\/hiking-boots\" style=\"orange\" size=\"medium\" type=\"normal\" target=\"_blank\" icon=\"\" icon_order=\"before\"]Hiking Boots[\/stag_button][stag_button url=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/men\/clothing\/underwear\/baselayers\" style=\"orange\" size=\"medium\" type=\"normal\" target=\"_blank\" icon=\"\" icon_order=\"before\"]Men\u2019s Baselayers[\/stag_button][stag_button url=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/women\/clothing\/underwear\/baselayers\" style=\"orange\" size=\"medium\" type=\"normal\" target=\"_blank\" icon=\"\" icon_order=\"before\"]Women\u2019s Baselayers[\/stag_button][stag_button url=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/men\/jackets\/shell-jackets\" style=\"orange\" size=\"medium\" type=\"normal\" target=\"_blank\" icon=\"\" icon_order=\"before\"]Men\u2019s Shell Jackets[\/stag_button][stag_button url=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/women\/jackets\/shell-jackets\" style=\"orange\" size=\"medium\" type=\"normal\" target=\"_blank\" icon=\"\" icon_order=\"before\"]Women\u2019s Shell Jackets[\/stag_button][stag_button url=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/men\/jackets\/\" style=\"orange\" size=\"medium\" type=\"normal\" target=\"_blank\" icon=\"\" icon_order=\"before\"]Men\u2019s Jackets[\/stag_button][stag_button url=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/women\/jackets\/\" style=\"orange\" size=\"medium\" type=\"normal\" target=\"_blank\" icon=\"\" icon_order=\"before\"]Women\u2019s Jackets[\/stag_button]<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3><strong>2. Book a Yurt near Les Loups Traill<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sepaq.com\/pq\/jac\/index.dot?language_id=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jacques Cartier National Park<\/a> is only half an hour from Quebec City. To completely unwind, choose to stay in a yurt.\r\n\r\nTake the weekend to walk the Les Loups Trail overlooking the spectacular Jacques-Cartier and Sautauriski valleys. The trail for intermediate-level hikers is 11 kilometers long after which you can enjoy the comforts of your yurt. Live the nomad life and enjoy a change of scenery! Please note that your 4-paw companion is allowed in the park, but is not allowed on this trail. Fortunately, your pooch will be able to stretch his legs on other trails.\r\n\r\nAlso remember to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/blog\/hiking-accessories-that-are-essential\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bring all the accessories you will need to perform well during your hike<\/a>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/outdoor-gear\/hiking\/hiking-poles-parts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hiking poles<\/a>, a backpack, good breathable socks, etc.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">[stag_button url=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/outdoor-gear\/hiking\/hiking-poles-parts\" style=\"orange\" size=\"medium\" type=\"normal\" target=\"_blank\" icon=\"\" icon_order=\"before\"]Hiking Poles[\/stag_button][stag_button url=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/outdoor-gear\/hiking\/backpacking-packs\" style=\"orange\" size=\"medium\" type=\"normal\" target=\"_blank\" icon=\"\" icon_order=\"before\"]Backpacking Packs[\/stag_button][stag_button url=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/footwear\/accessories\/socks\" style=\"orange\" size=\"medium\" type=\"normal\" target=\"_blank\" icon=\"\" icon_order=\"before\"]Socks[\/stag_button]<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3><strong>3.

It has nearly 100 kilometers of trails, half of which are paved. Along the way, make sure to enjoy the many delicious local products.\r\n\r\nYou can also get on your road or leisure bike to explore the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.easterntownships.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">different circuits in the Eastern Townships<\/a>, including the 33\u00a0km trip between Magog and Orford or the Grand Tour of Lac M\u00e9gantic of 56\u00a0km.\r\n\r\nMake sure you gear yourself up with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/outdoor-gear\/cycling\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">some essential accessories for your cycling outings<\/a>: bike helmet, gloves, jerseys, bibs, and more.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">[stag_button url=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/outdoor-gear\/cycling\/helmets\" style=\"orange\" size=\"medium\" type=\"normal\" target=\"_blank\" icon=\"\" icon_order=\"before\"]Cycling Helmets[\/stag_button][stag_button url=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/outdoor-gear\/cycling\/cycling-clothing\" style=\"orange\" size=\"medium\" type=\"normal\" target=\"_blank\" icon=\"\" icon_order=\"before\"]Cycling Clothing[\/stag_button]<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3><strong>4. Camp in a Sophisticated Tent in Estrie and Mont\u00e9r\u00e9gie\r\n<\/strong><\/h3>\r\nYou don\u2019t need to go deep into the woods to enjoy the tranquility of luxury camping tents in the ready-to-camp facilities of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sepaq.com\/pq\/bou\/index.dot?language_id=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u00celes-de-Boucherville National Park<\/a>, which rents out 20 or so luxury tents. Don\u2019t forget to bring your bike to ride around the island before enjoying a beautiful evening in the great outdoors...a stone's throw from the city!\r\n\r\nYou can also try out the <a href=\"https:\/\/canada-usa.huttopia.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Huttopia tents<\/a> made of canvas and wood that can accommodate 2 to 5 people. These include a bed, a small bathroom, and a refrigerator. You can even leave your sheets and towels at home, as everything is provided.\r\n\r\nAll you have to do is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/blog\/your-list-of-glamping-essentials\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bring your glamping gear<\/a> to decorate the premises and make your stay even more cozy.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">[stag_button url=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/collections\/camping\/glamping\" style=\"orange\" size=\"medium\" type=\"normal\" target=\"_blank\" icon=\"\" icon_order=\"before\"]Glamping Gear[\/stag_button][stag_button url=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/collections\/camping\/camping-cuisine\" style=\"orange\" size=\"medium\" type=\"normal\" target=\"_blank\" icon=\"\" icon_order=\"before\"]Camping Cuisine[\/stag_button]<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3><strong>5.

To sleep below the stars amidst the fall colours, there\u2019s nothing better than a tree house. More and more are popping up all over Quebec.
