What a lovely little gem in Nicolet! I took my kids there for an afternoon hike, and they absolutely loved exploring the area. The picnic tables were perfect for a snack break. We spotted various birds, and the shade provided by the trees made it comfortable even in warm weather. A must-visit!

As an avid hiker, I found the Boisé-du-Séminaire trail to be moderately challenging, especially with the elevation gain. It’s a great spot for a quick workout, but I wish the paths were a bit wider in some sections. Nonetheless, I appreciated the natural beauty and the wildlife sightings, including a few deer!

I visited the Réserve Naturelle Du Boisé-du-Séminaire on a bright sunny day. The trails were well-marked and pleasant to walk. I particularly enjoyed the diverse flora along the path, including the vibrant spring flowers. It made for a refreshing escape right in the city. I'll be back with my friends to explore more!
