Join woodsman-guide François for a gentle 3.5-hour Quebec forest walk with pack goats and Luna the dog. You’ll learn about wildlife, inspect a large beaver dam, spot animal signs, and finish with a picnic featuring homemade goat cheese and local treats.

“I've done a number of tours through Viator over the years across multiple countries and this was, hands down, our favorite. Francois's passion for his goats and the land was palpable. The goats on leashes were an absolute riot. We all took turns walking them, learned about some of the plants and surrounding forest, explored the beaver dam area and topped it off with an amazing lunch. Francois and his family were engaging, gracious hosts and the goats were adorable. (As was Luna the dog.) The walk wasn't too long/strenuous and there's so much to see along the way. Great tour for families with kids or those who enjoy nature…”
