Access Issue: HELMETS ARE MANDATORY TO CLIMB - La Conception nature park Details

The FQME membership will no longer offer a discount here and users must pay the 14$ for day use (2021-07-11).
The lac and surrounding areas are now owned by the municipality of La Conception.
The town has had to review its insurance following an incident at another cliff.

Description

On the north shore of the Lac Boisseau is a sublime south facing little crag with several high quality sport climbs. The rock type found there is absolutely unique in the Laurentians and reminds one of sandstone.

The routes are relatively short, many are slightly overhanging, and the rest are vertical.

Getting There

Autoroute 15 north which becomes route 117 north at Sainte Agathe.
From the second traffic lights continue for 12.5km
Take exit left for La Conception, rue Principale (the one following the exit for the Montagne d'Argent)
Drive 0.75km and just before the bridge turn right on rue des Érables.
After 4km turn right on Chemin des Chênes.
After 7km turn right into the parking lot.

Approach:
From the right side of the parking lot, follow the trail down towards a log bridge. Cross the bridge and follow the creek left to the lake. Continue along the trail right, which skirts the lake's shore. You will walk through several campsites. After about 10 minutes look right and you should see the cliff a hundred feet up the slope. Look for a trail that goes up.
