Camping du Ruisseau-Bascon
Camping du Ruisseau-Bascon
Camping du Ruisseau-Bascon is a trail campsite located within the Matane Wildlife Reserve in Quebec, situated along the International Appalachian Trail (IAT/SIA).
It serves as a strategic rest stop for long-distance hikers before they tackle the demanding Collins and Matawees mountains, known for their striking alpine meadows.
The campsite is a designated stop on several multi-day IAT circuits, including the 41 km Circuit No. 10 running from Petit-Sault to Ruisseau-Bascon.
Beyond the campsite, the trail continues toward Mont Fortin's sharp ridge, which marks the gateway into Gaspésie National Park, and ultimately the majestic Mont Logan — a landscape defined by permafrost and the presence of woodland caribou.
