One of Quebec's first national park's, the Forillon National Park is home to several plant, animal and bird species. The park spans across more than 200 square kilometers (77 square miles) and has varied habitats that include marshes and sand dunes. Whale sightings across the vast ocean are quite frequent, and seals make regular appearances on the coast. The interior of the park is a safe home for black bear families, and the park also has a considerable population of moose. The winding paths of the park are explored by many enthusiastic hikers and nature lovers. Apart from breathtaking landscapes, cascading waterfalls and animal sightings, the wilderness of the Forillon National Park has rundown settlements of houses that called this region their home before 1970.
